Abstract :
The application of tensor analysis to the problems of electrical engineering results in a great simplification of the mathematics involved in such a complicated system as that of a rotating machine, for tensor analysis provides the ability to generalize from simple individual cases to complicated groups and systems. Originally, tensor analysis was developed as a tool in advanced geometrical analysis, but has since found extensive applications in other fields. The purpose of this paper is to point out the value of tensors, and to serve as an introduction to further study.
