What is Cohesion?

Cohesion is the stress (act) of sticking together. Yet, in engineering mechanics, particularly in soil mechanics, cohesion refers to shear strength under zero normal stress, or the intercept of a material's failure envelope with shear stress axis in the shear stress-normal stress space.
