Additionally, two new chapters of Cartan differential forms and Dirac and tensor notations in quantum mechanics are added to this second edition. 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, differential geometry, and differential forms; and to apply them to the physical and engineering world. Many methods and applications are given in CFD, continuum mechanics, electrodynamics in special relativity, cosmology in the Minkowski four-dimensional spacetime, and relativistic and non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Tensors, differential geometry, differential forms, and Dirac notation are very useful advanced mathematical tools in many fields of modern physics and computational engineering. They are involved in special and general relativity physics, quantum mechanics, cosmology, electrodynamics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and continuum mechanics. The target audience of this all-in-one book primarily comprises graduate students in mathematics, physics, engineering, research scientists, and engineers. . 410 0$aMathematical Engineering,$x2192-4732 606 $aEngineering mathematics 606 $aDifferential geometry 606 $aPhysics 606 $aComputer mathematics 606 $aEngineering Mathematics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11030 606 $aDifferential Geometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M21022 606 $aMathematical Methods in Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013 606 $aComputational Science and Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M14026 615 0$aEngineering mathematics. 615 0$aDifferential geometry. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 0$aComputer mathematics. 615 14$aEngineering Mathematics. 615 24$aDifferential Geometry. 615 24$aMathematical Methods in Physics. 615 24$aComputational Science and Engineering. 676 $a515.63 700 $aNguyen-Schäfer$b Hung$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0720677 702 $aSchmidt$b Jan-Philip$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254350603321 996 $aTensor Analysis and Elementary Differential Geometry for Physicists and Engineers$92150003 997 $aUNINA
