We present a tensor description of Euclidean spaces that emphasizes the use of geometric vectors which leads to greater geometric insight and a higher degree of organization in analytical expressions.
THE vector analysis of Gibbs and Heaviside and the more general tensor analysis of Ricci are now recognized as standard tools in mechanics, hydro-dynamics and electrodynamics. Their use not only ...
'A Student's Guide to Vectors and Tensors' is a book written by Daniel Fleisch. It is aimed at undergraduate and beginning graduate students of physics and engineering. The book provides a thorough ...

In this lesson, you'll be introduced to the basic mathematical entities used in linear algebra. We'll also look at how these entities are created (and later manipulated) in Python using NumPy. Let's ...
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to establish a connection between Maxwell’s equations, Newton’s laws, and the special theory of relativity. This is done with a derivation that begins with ...
