Book Description
This book is about tensor calculus. The language and method used in presenting the ideas and techniques of tensor calculus make it very suitable for learning this subject by the beginners who have not been exposed previously to this elegant branch of mathematics. Considerable efforts have been made to reduce the dependency on foreign texts by summarizing the main concepts needed to make the book self-contained. The book also contains a significant number of high-quality graphic illustrations to aid the readers and students in their effort to visualize the ideas and understand the abstract concepts. Furthermore, illustrative techniques, such as coloring and highlighting key terms by boldface fonts, have been employed. The book also contains extensive sets of exercises which cover most of the given materials. These exercises are designed to provide thorough revisions of the supplied materials. The solutions of all these exercises are provided in a companion book. The book is also furnished with a rather detailed index and populated with hyperlinks, for the ebook users, to facilitate referencing and connecting related subjects and ideas.

A Brief on Tensor Analysis

Author: James G. Simmonds
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441985220
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 124

Book Description
In this text which gradually develops the tools for formulating and manipulating the field equations of Continuum Mechanics, the mathematics of tensor analysis is introduced in four, well-separated stages, and the physical interpretation and application of vectors and tensors are stressed throughout. This new edition contains more exercises. In addition, the author has appended a section on Differential Geometry.

A Student's Guide to Vectors and Tensors

Author: Daniel A. Fleisch
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521171908
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 206

Book Description
Vectors and tensors are among the most powerful problem-solving tools available, with applications ranging from mechanics and electromagnetics to general relativity. Understanding the nature and application of vectors and tensors is critically important to students of physics and engineering. Adopting the same approach used in his highly popular A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations, Fleisch explains vectors and tensors in plain language. Written for undergraduate and beginning graduate students, the book provides a thorough grounding in vectors and vector calculus before transitioning through contra and covariant components to tensors and their applications. Matrices and their algebra are reviewed on the book's supporting website, which also features interactive solutions to every problem in the text where students can work through a series of hints or choose to see the entire solution at once. Audio podcasts give students the opportunity to hear important concepts in the book explained by the author.
