Hi If I put a wheight on a vertical cylinder it will be shortened and its radius will be somewhat increased. I wonder if the radial increase is considered a negative stress in radial direction?
Is the stress tensor something like this?
-a 0 0
T= 0 0 0
0 0 b
Where a and b are positive values and the coordinates are cylindrical *ρ*, *
φ*, *z* (ISO 31-11).
