Tensors and methods of differential geometry are very useful mathematical
tools in many fields of modern physics and computational engineering
including relativity physics, electrodynamics, computational fluid
dynamics (CFD), continuum mechanics, aero and vibroacoustics, and
cybernetics. This book comprehensively presents topics, such as bra-ket
notation, tensor analysis, and elementary differential geometry of a
moving surface. Moreover, authors intentionally abstain from giving
mathematically rigorous definitions and derivations that are however dealt
with as precisely as possible. The reader is provided with hands-on
calculations and worked-out examples at which he will learn how to handle
the bra-ket notation, tensors and differential geometry and to use them in
the physical and engineering world. The target audience primarily
comprises graduate students in physics and engineering, research
scientists, and practicing engineers.
