Tensor Analysis - An Exploration of Vector and Tensor Fields

Pasquale De Marco

Sinopsis

In this comprehensive and accessible introduction to tensor analysis, readers will discover a powerful mathematical tool that is used in a wide range of fields, from physics and engineering to applied mathematics.

Tensor analysis is a generalization of vector calculus that allows for the representation of complex physical quantities in a way that is both elegant and powerful. It is used to study a variety of phenomena, including the behavior of materials under stress, the flow of fluids, and the propagation of waves.

This book begins with a thorough introduction to vectors and tensor fields. The authors then move on to discuss the calculus of tensors, which is essential for solving complex problems in continuum mechanics, fluid mechanics, elasticity, plasticity, and fracture mechanics.

Throughout the book, readers will find a wealth of examples and exercises that illustrate the application of tensor analysis to real-world problems. These examples and exercises are designed to help readers develop a deep understanding of the material and to prepare them for further study in their chosen field.

This book is an essential resource for students of engineering, physics, and applied mathematics who are interested in learning about tensor analysis. It is also a valuable reference for researchers who are using tensor analysis in their work.

With its clear and concise explanations, wealth of examples and exercises, and extensive coverage of the subject matter, this book is the perfect introduction to tensor analysis for anyone who wants to learn this powerful mathematical tool.

Cobalt - Cradle of the Demon...

Charlie Angus

The world is desperate for cobalt. It drives the proliferation of digital and clean technologies. But this "demon metal" has a horrific present and a troubled history. 
 
 
 
The modern search for cobalt has brought investors back to a small town in Northern Canada, a place called Cobalt. Like the demon metal, this town has a dark and turbulent history. 
 
 
 
The tale of the early-twentieth-century mining rush at Cobalt has been told as a settle's adventure, but Indigenous people had already been trading in metals from the region for two thousand years. And the events that happened here—the theft of Indigenous lands, the exploitation of a multicultural workforce, and the destruction of the natural environment—established a template for resource extraction that has been exported around the world. 
 
  
 
Charlie Angus reframes the complex and intersectional history of Cobalt within a broader international frame—from the conquistadores to the Western gold rush to the struggles in the Democratic Republic of Congo today. He demonstrates how Cobalt set Canada on its path to become the world's dominant mining superpower.

White-breasted Nuthatch and...

Greg Cetus

The White-breasted Nuthatch is a diminutive passerine bird, widely distributed across the United States, Canada, and parts of Mexico. The White-breasted Nuthatch may spend much of its time industriously carrying seeds away to hide them in crevices. Its nasal calls are typical and familiar sounds of winter mornings in deciduous woods over much of North America. This binaural audio recording features the White-breasted Nuthatch birdsong recorded in its natural habitat in Iowa’s Yellow River State Forest near a delicate babbling river stream together with other birds, insects, and ground creatures. Other birdsongs include: Yellow Warbler, Song Sparrow, Eastern Phoebe with Blue Jay, Yellow-bellied Sapsucker drumming in background.
