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 .

I really, really love Manifolds, Tensors, and Forms: An Introduction for Mathematicians and Physicists by Paul Renteln. It is mathematical—sorry—but it gives the bare-bones definitions that are needed to do differential geometry. So all of the ele. Eminently readable, it covers the elements of vector and tensor analysis, with applications of the theory to specific physics and engineering problems. It lays particular stress on the applications of the theory to fluid dynamics. The authors begin with a definition of vectors and a discussion of algebraic operations on vectors.2/5(2).
The title, The Poor Man’s Introduction to Tensors, is a reference to Gravitation by Misner, Thorne and Wheeler, V. Vectors 6 VI. The Metric Generalizes the Dot Product 9 VII.

Vectors and Tensors in Engineering and Physics develops the calculus of tensor fields and uses this mathematics to model the physical world. This new edition includes expanded derivations and solutions, and new applications.
The book provides equations for predicting: the rotations of gyroscopes and other axisymmetric solids, derived from Euler's equations for the motion of Cited by: (N.B.: Unit vectors are non-denominate, have a magnitude of unity, and are used only to specify a direction.) Then the total vector, in terms of its scalar components and the unit vectors, can be written as V = ai + bj + ck.
This notation is standard in all books on physics and engineering. It is also used in books on introductory Size: KB. This book is intended as a self-study text for students following courses in science and engineering where vectors are used.
The material covered and the level of treatment should be sufficient to provide the vector algebra and vector calculus skills required for most honours courses in mechanics, electromagnetism, fluid mechanics, aerodynamics, applied Cited by: 6.

The principal feature of the book is that the authors use mainly orthogonal tensors, since such tensors are important in applications to physics and regard to applications, the authors construct the general theory of second-degree surfaces, study the inertia tensor as well as the stress and strain tensors, and consider some.

In row-vector notation, the basis vectors themselves are just i= ex = (1,0,0) j= ey = (0,1,0) k= ez = (0,0,1) Suffix or Index notation A more systematic labelling of basis vectors is by e1, e2 and e3.
i.e. instead of iwe write e1, instead of jwe write e2, instead of kwe write scheme is known as the suffix. of transformation under change of basis.
Vectors are simple and well-known examples of tensors, but there is much more to tensor theory than vectors. The second chapter discusses tensor fields and curvilinear coordinates.
It is this chapter that provides the foundations for. Concise, readable text ranges from definition of vectors and discussion of algebraic operations on vectors to the concept of tensor and algebraic operations on tensors.
