Write the Cauchy stress tensor in the local fibre frame as . The compatible geometry has , and . With zero body force, force balance becomes and . For specified shear stress , the first equation determines along fibres, then the second determines along transverse curves. Pressure and fibre tension supply these two normal constraint reactions. This is a local stress construction; boundary tractions must be chosen consistently with its integration data.
