DomainDefinition

Mining

A stress that tends to push together the material on sides of a real orimaginary plane. CF:tensile stress. (references)

Physics

A normal stress directed towards the interior(of a body); "normal" means, in this context, "at right angles to the element of area considered" Source: European Union. (references)
