I think that a PhD student at my university has it already, in some a
bit older version of yade. I'm not sure if it is exactly what you
want: he cuts a box of volume inside a sample, finds all spheres that
cross this box boundary, gets their interaction forces and calculates
stresses. Also checking if the inside forces equal to outside forces.

This would be a nice exercise for him to commit this to BZR. But
I cannot tell you how long you would need to wait for this.

Łukasz can you just send the code that calculates the stress to Bruno?
