Tensors

Показать описание

A tensor is an algebraic object that describes a relationship between sets of algebraic objects related to a vector space. Objects that tensors may map between include vectors and scalars, and, recursively, even other tensors. Tensors are important in physics because they provide a concise mathematical framework for formulating and solving physics problems in areas such as mechanics (stress, elasticity, fluid mechanics, moment of inertia), electrodynamics (electromagnetic tensor, Maxwell tensor, permittivity, magnetic susceptibility), or general relativity (stress–energy tensor, curvature tensor ) and others.

After all this time, I just got it.
The problem with not getting it is how it is explained.
A vector is not explained like it has anything related to the surface of something.
It is typically explained as direction with respect to two direction in the sense of motion as in something moving, i.e. velocity.

Tensor should not get mixed up with vector at all. Why? Because when most people hear vector, in their mind they think about something moving.
Tensor is stress on a surface. Force directed to the surface, or directed with respect to its two other components. width, length so to speak.
