Essentials of Tensor Calculus - Part 5

In the final webinar of this series, we’ll explain the covariant derivative. We’ll finish a presentation on surface curvature in which we'll make the connection between the Riemann curvature tensor and the curvature of a surface where the terms "principal curvatures" and "total (or Gaussian)" curvature appear.
