Flux/source condition in mathematics module.

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

I am solving a set of PDEs using the coefficient form in comsol. I have populated the system with appropirate coefficients. The problem being studied is a plate with a hole subjected to tension in x direction. Hence I have to apply traction free boundary condition to the surfaces of the hole.

When I invoke the flux boundary condition, it asks for five set of flux equations for the traction free surface. In reality I just have the eqautions for traction free boundary conditions in x and y directions. What should be done for the other three flux/source terms?
