FIGURE 1.12
The surface
S
of a solid is considered to be made up of two surfaces
S
u
and
S
p
. The symbol
S
u
designates regions
with known displacements, whereas
S
p
denotes everything else, including those portions of the surface where
applied forces occur.
Note that
A
T
is of the same form as
D
T
of Eq. (1.53) in that the derivatives in
D
T
correspond
to the projection directions in
A
T
. Equations (1.57), which are surface stress conditions for
a point on the boundary, are often referred to as Cauchy's formula.
In particular, for the thin, flat element used for plane stress and strain, the surface condi-
tion takes the form (Fig. 1.11)

tractions normal and tangential to the boundary.
If surface force
s
(per unit area) are applied externally they are referred to as prescribed
surface
tractions
p
. Suppose the whole surface of the body is designated by
S
and that
those portions of the surface with prescribed tractions are designated as
S
p
(Fig. 1.12). Let
the remainder
o
f the surface, i.e.,
S
−
S
p
, be denoted as
S
u
to indicate where prescribed
displacements
u
appear.
Equilibrium requires that the resultant stress
p
be equal to the applied surface tractions

S
