Removing the froth then separates the minerals from the gangue material. Perfect
separation is impossible, but with constant supervision, repeated treatment, and
exacting control it is possible to concentrate 95 percent or more of the copper ...

If an isotropic linearly elastic solid undergoes simple shear, the only nonzero
components of the stress are aa = <r-n = m, where n is a property of the material
known as the shear modulus, or the rigidity. If a solid obeying Hooke's law is ...
