Comparison of output between Pylith 2 and Pylith 3

Hi developer,
I am wondering if the outputs with total_strain and stress in Pylith V2.2.2 are the same as the outputs with Cauchy_strain and Cauchy_stress in Pylith V3.0.2, respectively.
Thank you

You are correct. For linear elasticity with infinitesimal strain, in PyLith v1 and v2, we called the strain and stress fields total_strain and stress in the output, whereas in v3 they are called cauchy_strain and cauchy_stress. The names in v3 are more explicit in terms of the strain and stress measures being used.
