Rotation, Reflection, and Frame Changes
Orthogonal tensors in computational engineering mechanicsWhilst vast
literature is available for the most common rotation-related tasks such as
coordinate changes, most reference books tend to cover one or two methods, and
resources for less-common tasks are scarce. Specialized research applications
can be found in disparate journal articles, but a self-contained comprehensive
review that covers both elementary and advanced concepts in a manner
comprehensible to engineers is rare. Rotation, Reflection,
and Frame Changes surveys a
refreshingly broad range of rotation-related research that is routinely needed
in engineering practice. By illustrating key concepts in computer source code,
this book stands out as an unusually accessible guide for engineers and
scientists in engineering mechanics. ISBN: 9780750314527, 0750314524
