The fields of finite-element analysis, failure analysis, and solid mechanics all express stresses in terms of tensors. Engineering literature usually treats a tensor as a symbol dressed with indices ...
Optical manipulation of matter by using the mechanical action of light is one of the vibrant subjects of micro and nanoscience. In 2018 a Nobel Prize of physics was awarded to Arthur Ashkin for the ...
There are over 36,500 pieces of space debris of larger than 10 cm in orbit according to statistical model orbit provided by ...
Picture a suspension bridge. The river erodes the pillars, semi-trucks rumble across, blasts of gale-force wind whip between the cables. Through it all, the bridge must stand strong. If we can't see ...
You can do a lot of electronics without ever touching a tensor, but there are some situations in which tensors are absolutely essential. The problem is that most math texts give you a very dry ...
