# interface.node.stress.shear

Syntax

## Vector Access

v := interface.node.stress.shear(in<,i>)
interface.node.stress.shear(in<,i>) := v

Get/set the shear stress vector for the interface node. Returns a vector, unless an optional component argument i is supplied, in which case it returns the component value.

Returns: v - shear stress vector or component v - shear stress vector or component in - interface node pointer i - optional vector component, from 1 to 3

## Component Access

f := interface.node.stress.shear.x(in)
interface.node.stress.shear.x(in) := f

Get/set the $$x$$-component shear stress vector of the element node.

Returns: f - $$x$$-component shear stress vector f - $$x$$-component shear stress vector in - interface node pointer
f := interface.node.stress.shear.y(in)
interface.node.stress.shear.y(in) := f

Get/set the $$y$$-component shear stress vector of the element node.

Returns: f - $$y$$-component shear stress vector f - $$y$$-component shear stress vector in - interface node pointer
f := interface.node.stress.shear.z(in)
interface.node.stress.shear.z(in) := f

Get/set the $$z$$-component shear stress vector of the element node.

Returns: f - $$z$$-component shear stress vector f - $$z$$-component shear stress vector in - interface node pointer
