Hi,
I was thinking about the meaning of bools like reversedForces,
compressivePositive and so on.
Recently I was quite confused about that and my point is: say that in our
contact law we decide that compressive forces are positive. Then, why not be
consistent and take compressive stresses also positive? Do you agree that
the bools above generate a lot of confusion? Why do we need them?
