Hello, I wanted to ask if this is a correct move, A and B are matrices, a is a scalar, thank you !

A^{2}\cdot B^{t}-aA=A(A\cdot B^{t}-aI)

Seems correct to me.

Hi Yankel, :)

Yes, its correct because matrix multiplication is distributive over matrix addition.

Thank you !
 
Thread 'Derivation of equations of stress tensor transformation'
Hello ! I derived equations of stress tensor 2D transformation. Some details: I have plane ABCD in two cases (see top on the pic) and I know tensor components for case 1 only. Only plane ABCD rotate in two cases (top of the picture) but not coordinate system. Coordinate system rotates only on the bottom of picture. I want to obtain expression that connects tensor for case 1 and tensor for case 2. My attempt: Are these equations correct? Is there more easier expression for stress tensor...
