``.shear`` extension
--------------------

Text files with ``.shear`` extension should be organised as follows:

- ``.shear`` files should provide parameter values for

  #. shear rate, :math:`\dot\gamma`
  #. temperature, :math:`T`

- 2 columns separated by **spaces** or **tabs** containing respectively:

  #. time, :math:`t`,
  #. shear stress growth function, :math:`\sigma^+(t)`,

A correct ``.shear`` file looks like:

.. code-block:: none
  
  gdot=0.1;T=160;
  2.50E-01 845
  7.50E-01 1830
  1.25E+00 2490
  ...      ...

``.uext`` extension
-------------------

Text files with ``.uext`` extension should be organised as follows:

- ``.uext`` files should provide parameter values for

  #. Hencky strain rate, :math:`\dot\varepsilon`
  #. temperature, :math:`T`

- 2 columns separated by **spaces** or **tabs** containing respectively:

  #. time, :math:`t`,
  #. tensile stress growth function, :math:`\sigma_E^+(t)`,

A correct ``.uext`` file looks like:

.. code-block:: none
  
  gdot=0.1;T=160;
  2.50E-01 845
  7.50E-01 1830
  1.25E+00 2490
  ...      ...

.. warning::
  The first line of the ``.uext`` file provides the flow rate as ``gdot=0.1``, **not** ``edot=0.1``
