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.Mathematical Engineering,2192-4732Applied mathematicsEngineering mathematicsPhysicsComputer mathematicsMechanicsMechanics, AppliedMathematical and Computational Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11006Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Computational Science and Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14026Solid Mechanicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T15010Applied mathematics.Engineering mathematics.Physics.Computer mathematics.Mechanics.Mechanics, Applied.Mathematical and Computational Engineering.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Computational Science and Engineering.Solid Mechanics.515.63Nguyen-Schäfer Hungauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut720677Schmidt Jan-Philipauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299746703321Tensor Analysis and Elementary Differential Geometry for Physicists and Engineers2150003UNINA
