If the surface of the solid C is free from all exterior action and is in equilibrium, the stress field inside C is zero at the surface. If C is subjected from the outside to a distribution of stresses (apart from the volume forces mentioned earlier), the stress field inside the solid is such that at each point of the surface where the 's are the direction cosines of the normal to the surface at the point under consideration.
