Written for graduate students, professors, and researchers in the fields of elasticity and shell theories, this text offers an authoritative and complete explanation of tensor calculus based on transformations of vector space bases rather than coordinate transformations. This approach provides a clearer understanding of the physical components of tensors, especially in nonorthogonal coordinates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book presents a theory of \u003cstrong\u003ephysical and anholonomic components of tensors\u003c\/strong\u003e, offering insightful applications to theories of elasticity and structural mechanics. Altman also introduces \u003cstrong\u003edimensional analysis\u003c\/strong\u003e in relation to tensors and (anholonomic) connections, establishing the relationship and compatibility among several existing definitions of physical components of tensors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDivided into five comprehensive chapters, the text covers:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBasic concepts of linear algebra\u003c\/strong\u003e, including vector spaces, inner products, norms, and metrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlgebraic operations\u003c\/strong\u003e for vectors and tensors, along with duality, tensor products, and component representation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClassical tensor calculus\u003c\/strong\u003e, a prerequisite for the development of more advanced topics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etheory of physical and anholonomic components of tensors\u003c\/strong\u003e, with applications in the spaces of linear transformations and tensor products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book assumes a foundational knowledge of linear algebra and calculus but revisits and introduces these concepts in the early chapters to ensure clarity.
