Introduction
Scalars
Represent a single magnitude in each point in space
Vectors
Line segments that are expressible in terms of components resolved on to
a three dimensional coordinate system
Matrices
Rectangular arrays of numbers
Tensors
Physical quantities that are associated with coordinates but which do not
depend on those coordinates
Can be thought of as special forms of scalars, vectors or matrices that
represent physical properties
Examples
Density, 𝜌
Vector Vectors are directional quantities. 1st
order tensors that can be represented
Displacement, 𝒖 as column or row matrices

Matrix Matrices are rectangular arrays of
𝜎𝑥𝑥 𝜎𝑥𝑦 𝜎𝑥𝑧 numbers. This matrix is 2nd order
tensor. 2nd order tensor relates two
