Stress
The resultant force ΔF can be decomposed into components:
Then stress (i.e. the force per unit area) can be defined as:

In each plane, there will be one normal stress, and two
shear stress.
The first index shows the direction of the plane, and
second one shows the direction of stress. Therefore,
we have 3 normal and 6 tangential (shear) stresses.
Therefore in order to define stress (i.e. force per unit
area) at a point, we need nine components.

Pascal Law (pressure at a point)
In the absence of shear stresses, the normal stress
in a fluid is independent of orientation of the plane
thus can be represented by a single scalar quantity.
Taking the fact that fluids can sustain only
compression, pressure p is set equal to negative of
this magnitude: xx yy zz p

Hydrostatic Condition: Incompressible Fluids
The pressure in a homogenous, incompressible fluid at rest
depends on the depth of the fluid relative to some reference
& is not influenced by the shape of the container.

Basic Principles in Measurement of Pressure
The basic principles in measuring the pressure are:
1. On equipotential surfaces, pressure is constant.
2. If the gravity is the only body force, then equipotential
surfaces are horizontal planes.
3. In an incompressible fluid, pressure increases in moving
down, and decreases in moving up.

2.6. Hydrostatic Forces on Plane Surfaces
Consider a plane surface which is immersed completely in an incompressible liquid. We
wish to evaluate the resultant hydrostatic force on the upper face. For the purpose of
calculation, the plane of the submerged surface is extended so as to intersect with the
plane of the free surface. The trace of intersection is shown as the x axis in the
figure. Note that the y axis is coplanar with the top surface of the plate.

called the center of pressure.

Hydrostatic Force on Curved Surfaces
Forces on curved surfaces can be partially
determined by methods used on plane surfaces.
The force on any area element dA of this surface
is directed along the normal to the area element
and is given as:
