Curvature tensor — In differential geometry, the term curvature tensor may refer to: the Riemann curvature tensor of a Riemannian manifold see also Curvature of Riemannian manifolds; the curvature of an affine connection or covariant derivative (on tensors); the… … Wikipedia
Tensor — For other uses, see Tensor (disambiguation). Note that in common usage, the term tensor is also used to refer to a tensor field. Stress, a second order tensor. The tensor s components, in a three dimensional Cartesian coordinate system, form the… … Wikipedia
Curvature — In mathematics, curvature refers to any of a number of loosely related concepts in different areas of geometry. Intuitively, curvature is the amount by which a geometric object deviates from being flat, or straight in the case of a line, but this … Wikipedia
Curvature of Riemannian manifolds — In mathematics, specifically differential geometry, the infinitesimal geometry of Riemannian manifolds with dimension at least 3 is too complicated to be described by a single number at a given point. Riemann introduced an abstract and rigorous… … Wikipedia
Tensor field — In mathematics, physics and engineering, a tensor field is a very general concept of variable geometric quantity. It is used in differential geometry and the theory of manifolds, in algebraic geometry, in general relativity, in the analysis of… … Wikipedia
Ricci curvature — In differential geometry, the Ricci curvature tensor, named after Gregorio Ricci Curbastro, provides one way of measuring the degree to which the geometry determined by a given Riemannian metric might differ from that of ordinary Euclidean n… … Wikipedia
Weyl tensor — In differential geometry, the Weyl curvature tensor, named after Hermann Weyl, is a measure of the curvature of spacetime or, more generally, a pseudo Riemannian manifold. Like the Riemann curvature tensor, the Weyl tensor expresses the tidal… … Wikipedia
Metric tensor (general relativity) — This article is about metrics in general relativity. For a discussion of metrics in general, see metric tensor. Metric tensor of spacetime in general relativity written as a matrix. In general relativity, the metric tensor (or simply, the metric) … Wikipedia
Scalar-tensor theory — Scalar tensor theories are theories that include a scalar field as well as a tensor field to represent an interaction, especially the gravitational one. Tensor fields and field theory Modern physics tries to derive all physical theories from as… … Wikipedia
solids, mechanics of — ▪ physics Introduction science concerned with the stressing (stress), deformation (deformation and flow), and failure of solid materials and structures. What, then, is a solid? Any material, fluid or solid, can support normal forces.… … Universalium
General relativity — For a generally accessible and less technical introduction to the topic, see Introduction to general relativity. General relativity Introduction Mathematical formulation Resources … Wikipedia
