An introduction to vectors, vector operators and vector analysis / Pramod S. Joag.
Joag, Pramod S., 1951-| Call Number | 512/.5 |
| Author | Joag, Pramod S., 1951- author. |
| Title | An introduction to vectors, vector operators and vector analysis / Pramod S. Joag. |
| Physical Description | 1 online resource (xxvi, 520 pages) : digital, PDF file(s). |
| Notes | Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 11 Aug 2017). |
| Summary | Ideal for undergraduate and graduate students of science and engineering, this book covers fundamental concepts of vectors and their applications in a single volume. The first unit deals with basic formulation, both conceptual and theoretical. It discusses applications of algebraic operations, Levi-Civita notation, and curvilinear coordinate systems like spherical polar and parabolic systems and structures, and analytical geometry of curves and surfaces. The second unit delves into the algebra of operators and their types and also explains the equivalence between the algebra of vector operators and the algebra of matrices. Formulation of eigen vectors and eigen values of a linear vector operator are elaborated using vector algebra. The third unit deals with vector analysis, discussing vector valued functions of a scalar variable and functions of vector argument (both scalar valued and vector valued), thus covering both the scalar vector fields and vector integration. |
