OOF2: The Manual
Name
Deviator (Deviator) — Magnitude of deviatoric part of a symmetric tensor.
Synopsis
Deviator()
Description
The Deviator is one of the Invariants
of a symmetric three dimensional rank 2 tensor quantity that can be
computed by the OOF2 Outputs. It
is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the
traceless part of the tensor. In elastic problems, it measures the
amount of shear represented by the tensor.
