Explains vectors and tensors in plain language to give undergraduate and beginning graduate students a better understanding.
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 an…
As electromagnetics, photonics, and materials science evolve, it is increasingly important for students and practitioners in the physical sciences and engineering to understand vector calculus and tensor analysis. This book provides a review of vector calculus. This review inclu…
