Draft. — University of New Mexico, Albuquerque, 2003. — 323 p.
A casual (intuition-based) introduction to vector and tensor analysis with reviews of popular notations used in contemporary materials modeling.
Elementary vector and tensor analysis concepts are reviewed in a manner that proves useful for higher-order tensor analysis of anisotropic media. In addition to reviewing basic matrix and vector analysis, the concept of a tensor is covered by reviewing and contrasting numerous different definition one might see in the literature for the term tensor. Basic vector and tensor operations are provided, as well as some lesser-known operations that are useful in materials modeling. Considerable space is devoted to philosophical discussions about relative merits of the many (often conflicting) tensor notation systems in popular use.
