Graduate Material Derivative (Convective Derivative Operator)
Thank you! I'll look up latex when I have time :) About the Material Derivative, I read some more about it online and found that in Pgs 1-3 of http://www.chem.mtu.edu/~fmorriso/cm4650/lecture_6.pdf, ∇v is a tensor which would make 2) different from 1) as 1) is a vector. Is this accurate...- thehappypenguin

Graduate Material Derivative (Convective Derivative Operator)
Hi, I've learned that material derivative is equal to local derivative + convective derivative, but can't seem to find out which way the convective derivative acts, like for example in velocity fields: The equation my teacher gave us was (with a and v all/both vectors): Acceleration = material...- thehappypenguin
