Introduction to Vectors and Tensors Volume 2: Vector and Tensor Analysis
by Ray M. Bowen, C.-C. Wang
2008
ISBN/ASIN: 0306375095
Number of pages: 246
Description:
The textbook presents introductory concepts of vector and tensor analysis. Volume II begins with a discussion of Euclidean Manifolds which leads to a development of the analytical and geometrical aspects of vector and tensor fields. We have not included a discussion of general differentiable manifolds. However, we have included a chapter on vector and tensor fields defined on Hypersurfaces in a Euclidean Manifold.
