Given a sperically symmetric problem, I am asked to show that its Cauchy stress tensor, in spherical coordinates will assume the form:
¯¯σ=σRR(r)¯er⊗¯er+σθθ(r)(¯eθ⊗¯eθ+¯eϕ⊗¯eϕ)
My idea was to say that that tensor must be invariant under all the O(3) transfromation since the physics of this problem must be invariant under rotation. The problem is that I should express the O(3) transformation in spherical coordinates and this is not immediate for me...
