O traço de uma matriz (quando ela é a representação de um tensor) dá o máximo stress permitido:In the case of a fluid, Pascal's law shows that the hydrostatic stress is the same in all directions, at least to a first approximation, so can be captured by the scalar quantity pressure. Thus, in the case of a solid, the hydrostatic (or isostatic) pressure p is defined as one third of the trace of the tensor, i.e., the mean of the diagonal terms.----- Original Message -----From: JúniorSent: Wednesday, April 12, 2006 11:02 AMSubject: Re: [obm-l] MatrizAlexandre, traço é a soma dos elementos da diagonal principal. Já tipo de uma matriz nunca ouvi falar.
