Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Tensor Calculus and Analytical Dynamics provides a concise, comprehensive, and readable introduction to classical tensor calculus as well as to its principal applications in the Lagrangean dynamics of discrete systems under positional or velocity constraints. The book focuses on formal structure and the basic geometrical and physical ideas underlying most general equations of motion for mechanical systems under linear velocity constraints. Written for the theoretically minded engineer, it contains uniquely accessible treatments of intricate topics. The book enables readers to move quickly and confidently in any geometry-based area of theoretical or applied mechanics.
