In the absence of a counterbalancing pressure from the outside, the imposed pressure from within generates a compressive stress $\sigma_c$ in the radial direction and a tensile stress $\sigma_t$ in the two orthogonal directions (along spheres concentric with the particle) through the volune of the surrounding solid. As shown in the picture below, both components decrease with the cube of the distance from the particle, and so have maximum magnitude at the particle surface. There the negative compressive stress is $-P$ and the positive tensile stress is $+P/2$. [![enter image description here][1]][1] [1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/tcV7I.png We can apply the Von Mises yield criterion which states that the surrounding matrix yields, thus reducing the retained pressure, when $(\sigma_1-\sigma_2)^2+(\sigma_2-\sigma_3)^2+(\sigma_3-\sigma_1)^2\ge2(YS)^2$ where $\sigma_1,\sigma_2,\sigma_3$ are the three orthogonal principal components of the stress tensor. Here $\sigma_1=\sigma_c=-P$ and $\sigma_2=\sigma_3=\sigma_t=+P/2$, from which the yield criterion then becomes $P\ge(2/3)(YS)$ For a diamond lattice with a yield strength of 35 GPa this means the diamond can sustain a pressure up to 11 GPa, as quoted in the main text, around an Ice VII inclusions, whereas most other minerals would have yield stresses well below 1 GPa and thus fail to retain enough pressure to sustain Ice VII or other GPa-pressure phase inclusions.
