Tensor Analysis

Summary

The elements of tensor algebra and tensor analysis in cartesian and/or orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems. Tensor fields are studied using local and global characteristics. The applications are illustrated in static and dynamic elasticity as well as on several problems of electromagnetic field in anisotropic materials. More of applications (hydrodynamics et al.) can be chosen when needed.
