    <p><tt>I don't pretend to know all the ways to enter, or the easiest
        way to enter point-based stress tensors, however, I do know two
        ways to do this:</tt></p>
    <p><tt><br>
      </tt></p>
    <p><tt>(1) Using the VTK XML-based format, see file
        VTK-XML-Stress-Coding.txt</tt></p>
    <p><tt><br>
      </tt></p>
    <p><tt>(2) Using the EnSight Gold binary format, see file EnSight-Stress-Coding.txt</tt></p>
    <p><tt><br>
      </tt></p>
    <p><tt>In these code extracts, I have included the two scalar datum
        items Effective_Stress and Pressure. As useful as PV's
        Calculator Filter is, I find it easier to do these two scalar
        stress invariant calculations in the code that generates the
        simulation results output.<br>

                    I need to put the following Information from a

                    by paraview. And that can be used with Stream
