the condition of equilibrium of point-particles
Explanation:
or point-masses.

Often times, in the physical sciences particles are modeled as point-masses or point-particles (i.e. particles that do not have any volume or any extent).

One of the conditions of the equilibrium of a solid body is the equilibrium of each and every point-mass (net force on the particle = 0 and also net torque = 0).
