1 tensor algebra 02-1

2 tensor the word tensor was introduced in 1846 by william rowan hamilton. it was used in its current meaning by woldemar voigt in was developed around 1890 by gregorio ricci-curbastro under the title absolute differential calculus. in the 20th century, the subject came to be known as tensor analysis, and achieved broader acceptance with the introduction of einsteins's theory of general relativity around tensors are used also in other fields such as continuum mechanics. 2
