For a body in equilibrium (not in motion) subjected to some external forces Pi, there are internal forces developed within the body.

Since the body was initially in equilibrium, half of this body should also be in equilibrium. The internal forces are derived from the equilibrium equations and can be defined as the forces to bring the body to equilibrium. Remember force is a vectorical quantity which has a magnitude and direction.
P1+P2+P3+P4 = 0
For the original body
M = 0 P1+P2+F = 0
For half of the body
M = 0
F can be solved from the above set of
equilibrium equations of the half plane.
STRESS
If you look at that cut section little bit closer; Force acting on an infinite small area can be shown; F
s
That force is called the STRESS.
In other words stress is the force intensity (force per
unit area) acting on a material. Stress = Force Area or
F A
Normal () : acts perpendicular to the area Stress Shear () : acts parallel to the area. For example; if the cut section is perpendicular to xaxis y
Fy F x z Fx

However, stresses are always represented in
tensorial (!not vectorical!) notation. The plane it is acting on is also presented. Therefore, if you take an infinitesmall volume element you can show all of the stress components
The
first subscript indicates the plane perpendicular to the axis and the second subscript indicates the direction of the stress component.
Stress Tensor
In tensorial notation the stress components
are assembled in a matrix.
For equilibrium it
can be shown that :

S=
ij = ji for i j xy = yx xz = zx yz = zy
This symmetry reduces the shear stress components
to three.
Stresses can be grouped in several ways.

Static: A constant and continuous load causes a static stress.
