Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
> How to associate the non-zero term with the index?

The Matrix3 is (xx, xy, xz,  yx, yy, yz,  zx, zy, zz), "one row" of the form:
xx  xy  xz
yx  yy  yz
zx  zy  zz

> If the O.cell.velGrad=Matrix3(.1,0,0, 0,0,0, 0,0,0), Which is the
shear plane?

you have no shear here.
the first (the only non-zero) element is xx = normal x direction, so this correspond to stretching (enlargement) along x axis.

cheers
Jan
