Question #266331 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/266331
Status: Open => Answered Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer: Hello, TW actually returns the displacement gradient tensor, that is why it can be non-symmetric. Take the symmetric part to keep only the "strain" part. Deviator is the second invariant, s_ij*s_ij where "s" is the deviatoric part of the strain tensor.. Magnitude is e_ij*e_ij, the L_2,1 norm of the tensor (just like the second invariant is the norm of the deviatoric part).
