/output/stress/statistics
- type
- A variable indicating the type of quantity to be computed.
There are three choices: 1) cartesian calculates the mean and
standard deviation of each component of the stress tensor as defined
by the screen horizontal and vertical directions; 2) eigenvalues
calculates the mean and standard deviation of the principal stress
(the eigenvalues, labeled emax, emid, and emin) and
the shear (computed as half the absolute value of the difference
between the largest and smallest eigenvalues). These quantities are
frame invariant; 3) extremes calculates the extreme (maximum and
minimum) values of both Cartesian and invariant quantities. The
means, deviations, and extremes of the stress components are printed
in the tensor format used by /output/stress/selected
(3.38.1), although the extremes don't really form a tensor.
4) invariants calculates the mean and standard deviation of the
first, second, and third invariants of the stress.
