Description for Tensor Algebra and Tensor Analysis for Engineers
Paperback. Ideal for engineering students with some knowledge of matrix algebra, this text bridges the gap between tensor algebra and the treatment of linear transformations in classical linear algebra. This revised second edition has additional examples and exercises. Num Pages: 247 pages, 13 black & white illustrations, 3 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBF; PHD; PHU; TG; UYQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 14. Weight in Grams: 409.
This second edition is completed by a number of additional examples and exercises. In response of comments and questions of students using this book, solutions of many exercises have been improved for a better understanding. Some changes and enhancements are concerned with the treatment of sk- symmetric and rotation tensors in the ?rst chapter. Besides, the text and formulae have thoroughly been reexamined and improved where necessary.
