Tensor Trigonometry
by A.S. Ninul - FIZMATLIT , 2021
The tensor trigonometry is development of the flat scalar trigonometry from Euler classic forms into general multi-dimensional tensor forms with vector and scalar orthoprojections. The book describes fundamentals of this new mathematical subject.

Symbolic Tensor Calculus on Manifolds: a SageMath Implementation
by Eric Gourgoulhon, Marco Mancini - arXiv.org , 2018
These lecture notes present a method for symbolic tensor calculus that runs on fully specified smooth manifolds (described by an atlas), that is not limited to a single coordinate chart or vector frame, and runs even on non-parallelizable manifolds.

A Gentle Introduction to Tensors
by Boaz Porat - Technion , 2010
The book discusses constant tensors and constant linear transformations, tensor fields and curvilinear coordinates, and extends tensor theory to spaces other than vector spaces, namely manifolds. Written for the benefits of Engineering students.

An Introduction to Tensors for Students of Physics and Engineering
by Joseph C. Kolecki - Glenn Research Center , 2002
The book should serve as a bridge to the place where most texts on tensor analysis begin. A semi-intuitive approach to those notions underlying tensor analysis is given via scalars, vectors, dyads, triads, and similar higher-order vector products.

Functional and Structured Tensor Analysis for Engineers
by R. M. Brannon - The University of Utah , 2003
A step-by-step introduction to tensor analysis that assumes you know nothing but basic calculus. Considerable emphasis is placed on a notation style that works well for applications in materials modeling, but other notation styles are also reviewed.

Quick Introduction to Tensor Analysis
by Ruslan Sharipov - Samizdat Press , 2004
The author gives only a draft of tensor theory, he formulates definitions and theorems and gives basic ideas and formulas. Proving consistence of definitions, deriving formulas, proving theorems or completing details to proofs is left to the reader.
