(25.16) By putting f"x! y! z# = constant , we obtain a surface of second order, the strain quadratic, also called the ellipsoid of strain. We refer the strain quadratic to its principal axes "X1! X2!

(25.17) Here e1 , e2 , and e3 are the principal values of the strain tensor, and are called the principal normal strains.

Therefore, the symmetric part of !V is composed of three expansions (or contractions) in the mutually orthogonal directions of the principal axes of the strain quadratic. We next consider the sum of the diagonal elements of e, i.e. exx + eyy + ezz = eii = . ) V . (25.20) This quantity is an invariant under the rotation of the axes of reference.

Of course, this quantity is called the divergence, and we “knew already” that it is independent of the choice of reference.

    KPOP E-2020-04 Bra-Ket Representation of the Inertia Tensor U-Rae Kim, Dohyun Kim, and Jungil Lee∗ KPOPE Collaboration, Department of Physics, Korea University, Seoul 02841, Korea (Dated: June 18, 2021) Abstract We employ Dirac's bra-ket notation to define the inertia tensor operator that is independent of the choice of bases or coordinate system. The principal axes and the corresponding principal values for the elliptic plate are determined only based on the geometry. By making use of a general symmetric tensor operator, we develop a method of diagonalization that is convenient and intuitive in determining the eigenvector. We demonstrate that the bra-ket approach greatly simplifies the computation of the inertia tensor with an example of an N-dimensional ellipsoid. The exploitation of the bra-ket notation to compute the inertia tensor in classical mechanics should provide undergraduate students with a strong background necessary to deal with abstract quantum mechanical problems.

INTRODUCTION The inertia tensor is one of the essential ingredients in classical mechanics with which one can investigate the rotational properties of rigid-body motion [1]. The symmetric nature of the rank-2 Cartesian tensor guarantees that it is described by three fundamental parameters called the principal moments of inertia Ii, each of which is the moment of inertia along a principal axis.

  • Tensors (Draft Copy)
    TENSORS (DRAFT COPY) LARRY SUSANKA Abstract. The purpose of this note is to define tensors with respect to a fixed finite dimensional real vector space and indicate what is being done when one performs common operations on tensors, such as contraction and raising or lowering indices. We include discussion of relative tensors, inner products, symplectic forms, interior products, Hodge duality and the Hodge star operator and the Grassmann algebra. All of these concepts and constructions are extensions of ideas from linear algebra including certain facts about determinants and matrices, which we use freely. None of them requires additional structure, such as that provided by a differentiable manifold. Sections 2 through 11 provide an introduction to tensors. In sections 12 through 25 we show how to perform routine operations involving tensors. In sections 26 through 28 we explore additional structures related to spaces of alternating tensors. Our aim is modest. We attempt only to create a very structured develop- ment of tensor methods and vocabulary to help bridge the gap between linear algebra and its (relatively) benign notation and the vast world of tensor ap- plications. We (attempt to) define everything carefully and consistently, and this is a concise repository of proofs which otherwise may be spread out over a book (or merely referenced) in the study of an application area. Many of these applications occur in contexts such as solid-state physics or electrodynamics or relativity theory. Each subject area comes equipped with its own challenges: subject-specific vocabulary, traditional notation and other conventions. These often conflict with each other and with modern mathematical practice, and these conflicts are a source of much confusion.

  • 1 Vectors & Tensors
    1 Vectors & Tensors The mathematical modeling of the physical world requires knowledge of quite a few different mathematics subjects, such as Calculus, Differential Equations and Linear Algebra. These topics are usually encountered in fundamental mathematics courses. However, in a more thorough and in-depth treatment of mechanics, it is essential to describe the physical world using the concept of the tensor, and so we begin this book with a comprehensive chapter on the tensor. The chapter is divided into three parts. The first part covers vectors (§1.1-1.7). The second part is concerned with second, and higher-order, tensors (§1.8-1.15). The second part covers much of the same ground as done in the first part, mainly generalizing the vector concepts and expressions to tensors. The final part (§1.16-1.19) (not required in the vast majority of applications) is concerned with generalizing the earlier work to curvilinear coordinate systems. The first part comprises basic vector algebra, such as the dot product and the cross product; the mathematics of how the components of a vector transform between different coordinate systems; the symbolic, index and matrix notations for vectors; the differentiation of vectors, including the gradient, the divergence and the curl; the integration of vectors, including line, double, surface and volume integrals, and the integral theorems. The second part comprises the definition of the tensor (and a re-definition of the vector); dyads and dyadics; the manipulation of tensors; properties of tensors, such as the trace, transpose, norm, determinant and principal values; special tensors, such as the spherical, identity and orthogonal tensors; the transformation of tensor components between different coordinate systems; the calculus of tensors, including the gradient of vectors and higher order tensors and the divergence of higher order tensors and special fourth order tensors.

  • Tensor Categorical Foundations of Algebraic Geometry
    Tensor categorical foundations of algebraic geometry Martin Brandenburg { 2014 { Abstract Tannaka duality and its extensions by Lurie, Sch¨appi et al. reveal that many schemes as well as algebraic stacks may be identified with their tensor categories of quasi-coherent sheaves. In this thesis we study constructions of cocomplete tensor categories (resp. cocontinuous tensor functors) which usually correspond to constructions of schemes (resp. their morphisms) in the case of quasi-coherent sheaves. This means to globalize the usual local-global algebraic geometry. For this we first have to develop basic commutative algebra in an arbitrary cocom- plete tensor category. We then discuss tensor categorical globalizations of affine morphisms, projective morphisms, immersions, classical projective embeddings (Segre, Pl¨ucker, Veronese), blow-ups, fiber products, classifying stacks and finally tangent bundles. It turns out that the universal properties of several moduli spaces or stacks translate to the corresponding tensor categories. arXiv:1410.1716v1 [math.AG] 7 Oct 2014 This is a slightly expanded version of the author's PhD thesis.

The most central applications are image enhancement, registration, segmentation and feature extraction. Even though these applications involve non-linear processing a majority of the methodologies available rely on initial estimates using linear filters. Linear filtering is a well established corner- stone of signal processing, which is reflected by the overwhelming amount of literature on finite impulse response filters and their design. Standard techniques for multidimensional filtering are computationally intense. This leads to either a long computation time or a performance loss caused by approximations made in order to increase the computational efficiency. This dis- sertation presents a framework for realization of efficient multidimensional filters. A weighted least squares design criterion ensures preservation of the performance and the two techniques called filter networks and sub-filter sequences significantly reduce the computational demand. A filter network is a realization of a set of filters, which are decomposed into a structure of sparse sub-filters each with a low number of coefficients.

Purpose The main purpose of this paper is to introduce the new bosonic mechanism and new treatment of dark energy. The bosonic mechanism focuses on obtaining masses by gauge bosons without assuming the existence of Higgs boson. This paper highlights the possibility for gauge boson to obtain mass not by means of interaction with Higgs boson, but by interacting with massive scalar mode of a single gravitational-dark field. The advantage of this approach over Higgs model is the manifest that the gauge boson acquires mass through interaction with combined gravitational dark field thus allowing the mechanism to account for the dark sector while Higgs model does not include dark sector.
