1 Vector and Tensor Calculus

1.1 Introduction
Before we can start with biomechanics, it is necessary
to introduce some basic
mathematical concepts and to introduce the
mathematical notation that will be
used throughout the book. The present chapter is
aimed at understanding some
of the basics of vector calculus, which are necessary
to elucidate the concepts of
force and momentum that will be treated in the next
chapter.

1.2 Definition of a Vector


A vector is a mathematical entity having both a
magnitude (length or size) and a
direction. For a vector a, it holds (see Fig. 1.1), that:

a = ae. (1.1)
The length of the vector a is denoted by |a| and is
equal to the length of the arrow.
The length is equal to a, when a is positive, and equal
to −a when a is negative.
The direction of a is given by the unit vector e
combined with the sign of a. The
unit vector e has length 1. The vector 0 has length
zero.

1.3 Vector Operations


Multiplication of a vector a = ae by a positive scalar α
yields a vector b having
the same direction as a but a different magnitude α|a|:

b = αa = αae. (1.2)
This makes sense: pulling twice as hard on a wire
creates a force in the wire
having the same orientation (the direction of the wire
does not change), but with
a magnitude that is twice as large.

The vector a = ae with a > 0.

c

Figure 1.2
Graphical representation of the sum of two vectors: c
= a + b.
The sum of two vectors a and b is a new vector c,
equal to the diagonal of the
parallelogram spanned by a and b (see Fig. 1.2):
c = a + b. (1.3)
This may be interpreted as follows. Imagine two thin
wires which are attached
to a point P. The wires are being pulled at in two
different directions according
to the vectors a and b. The length of each vector
represents the magnitude of the
pulling force. The net force vector exerted on the
attachment point P is the vector
sum of the two vectors a and b. If the wires are aligned
with each other and the
pulling direction is the same, the resulting force
direction clearly coincides with
the direction of the two wires, and the length of the
resulting force vector is the
sum of the two pulling forces. Alternatively, if the two
wires are aligned but the
pulling forces are in opposite directions and of equal
magnitude, the resulting
force exerted on point P is the zero vector 0.
The inner product or dot product of two vectors is a
scalar quantity, defined as
a · b = |a||b| cos(φ), (1.4)
where φ is the smallest angle between a and b (see
Fig. 1.3). The inner product is
commutative, i.e.

a · b = b · a. (1.5)
The inner product can be used to define the length of a
vector, since the inner
product of a vector with itself yields (φ = 0):
a · a = |a||a| cos(0) = |a|

Definition of the angle φ.

Figure 1.4
Vector product c = a × b. The direction of vector c is
determined by the corkscrew or right-hand rule.
If two vectors are perpendicular to each other the
inner product of these two
vectors is equal to zero, since in that case φ = π
2:
a · b = 0, if φ = π

2 . (1.7)
The cross product or vector product of two vectors a
and b yields a new vector
c that is perpendicular to both a and b such that a, b
and c form a right-handed
system. The vector c is denoted as

c = a × b . (1.8)

The length of the vector c is given by

|c| = |a||b|sin(φ), (1.9)


where φ is the smallest angle between a and b. The
length of c equals the area of
the parallelogram spanned by the vectors a and b. The
vector system a, b and c
forms a right-handed system, meaning that if a
corkscrew were used rotating from
a to b the corkscrew would move into the direction of
c (see Fig. 1.4).
The vector product of a vector a with itself yields the
zero vector, since in that
case φ = 0:

a × a = 0. (1.10)
4 Vector and Tensor Calculus
The vector product is not commutative, since the
vector product of b and a yields
a vector that has the opposite direction to the vector
product of a and b:
a × b = −b × a. (1.11)

The triple product of three vectors a, b and c is a


scalar, defined by

a × b · c = (a × b) · c. (1.12)
So, first the vector product of a and b is determined
and subsequently the inner
product of the resulting vector with the third vector c is
taken. If all three vectors
a, b and c are non-zero vectors, while the triple
product is equal to zero, then the
vector c lies in the plane spanned by the vectors a and
b. This can be explained
by the fact that the vector product of a and b yields a
vector perpendicular to the

plane spanned by a and b. Conversely, this implies


that if the triple product is non-
zero then the three vectors a, b and c are not in the
same plane. In that case the

absolute value of the triple product of the vectors a, b


and c equals the volume of
the parallelepiped spanned by a, b and c.

The dyadic or tensor product of two vectors a and b


defines a linear transfor-
mation operator called a dyad ab. Application of a
dyad ab to a vector p yi elds

a vector into the direction of a, where a is multiplied by


the inner product of b
and p:
ab · p = a (b · p). (1.13)
So, application of a dyad to a vector transforms this
vector into another vector.
This transformation is linear, as can be seen from
ab · (αp + βq) = ab · αp + ab · βq = αab · p + βab · q.
(1.14)
The transpose of a dyad (ab)

T is defined by
(ab)
T · p = ba · p, (1.15)

or simply

(ab)
T = ba. (1.16)
An operator A that transforms a vector a into another
vector b according to
b = A · a, (1.17)
is called a second-order tensor A. This implies that the
dyadic product of two
vectors is a second-order tensor.
In three-dimensional space, a set of three vectors c1,
c2 and c3 is called a basis
if the triple product of the three vectors is non-zero,
hence if all three vectors are
non-zero vectors and if they do not lie in the same
plane:
