  2. Tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor

    A metric tensor is a (symmetric) (0, 2)-tensor; it is thus possible to contract an upper index of a tensor with one of the lower indices of the metric tensor in the product. This produces a new tensor with the same index structure as the previous tensor, but with lower index generally shown in the same position of the contracted upper index.

  3. String diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_diagram

    the tensor of two diagrams as the composition of whiskerings ′ = (′) ′. Note that because the diagram is in generic form (i.e. each layer contains exactly one box) the definition of tensor is necessarily biased: the diagram on the left hand-side comes above the one on the right-hand side.

  4. Tensor network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor_network

    Tensor networks or tensor network states are a class of variational wave functions used in the study of many-body quantum systems [1] and fluids. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Tensor networks extend one-dimensional matrix product states to higher dimensions while preserving some of their useful mathematical properties.

  5. Viscous stress tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_stress_tensor

    The strain rate tensor E(p, t) is symmetric by definition, so it has only six linearly independent elements. Therefore, the viscosity tensor μ has only 6 × 9 = 54 degrees of freedom rather than 81. In most fluids the viscous stress tensor too is symmetric, which further reduces the number of viscosity parameters to 6 × 6 = 36.

    Others like CamStudio can be used to record the screen activity. [2] The most popular pieces of slide producing software are Microsoft PowerPoint, Prezi, Apple Keynote, Google Slides and ClearSlide. [3] PowerPoint is currently the most popular slides presentation program. LibreOffice Impress is a FOSS alternative.

  7. Kerr effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerr_effect

    In combination with polarizers, it can be used as a shutter or modulator. The values of K depend on the medium and are about 9.4×10 −14 m·V −2 for water, [citation needed] and 4.4×10 −12 m·V −2 for nitrobenzene. [10] For crystals, the susceptibility of the medium will in general be a tensor, and the Kerr effect produces a ...

  8. Category:Tensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Tensors

    In mathematics, a tensor is a certain kind of geometrical entity and array concept. It generalizes the concepts of scalar , vector and linear operator , in a way that is independent of any chosen frame of reference .

  9. Cartesian tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_tensor

    A dyadic tensor T is an order-2 tensor formed by the tensor product ⊗ of two Cartesian vectors a and b, written T = a ⊗ b.Analogous to vectors, it can be written as a linear combination of the tensor basis e x ⊗ e x ≡ e xx, e x ⊗ e y ≡ e xy, ..., e z ⊗ e z ≡ e zz (the right-hand side of each identity is only an abbreviation, nothing more):
