Tensor Calculus
by Taha Sochi
Publisher: viXra 2016
Number of pages: 91
Description:
These notes are the second part of the tensor calculus documents. We continue the discussion of selected topics of the subject at a higher level expanding, when necessary, some topics and developing further concepts and techniques. The present notes are essentially based on assuming an underlying general curvilinear coordinate system.
