Generalized Vector and Dyadic Analysis: Applied Mathematics in Field Theory (IEEE/OUP Series on Electromagnetic Wave Theory)

An indispensable reference tool for engineers, mathematicians, and physicists, this book offers details on previously unpublished methods of treating and presenting vector and dyadic analysis. Along with pointing out various fundamental misunderstandings in the presentation of concepts to date, Tai presents original findings on a new symbolic method with the aid of a symbolic vector. Additional features include: detailed derivations of theorems identities; coverage of new topics such as surface vector analysis and dyadic analysis; and a concise but rigorous treatment of a symbolic vector.
