A Survey of Geometric Algebra and Geometric Calculus

This paper is an introduction to geometric algebra and geometric calculus, presented in the simplest way I could manage, without worrying too much about completeness or rigor. An understanding of linear algebra and vector calculus is presumed. This should be sufficient to read most of the paper. “The principal argument for the adoption of geometric algebra is that it provides a single, simple m...

An Introduction to Geometric Algebra and Calculus

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Extensors in Geometric Algebra

This paper, the third in a series of three introduces the basics of the theory of extensors that are need for the a theory of multvector and extensor fields in arbitrary manifolds, developed in a following series of five papers. Key notions such as the extension and generalization operators of a given linear operator (a (1, 1)-extensor) acting on a real vector space V are introduced and studied...
