open-in-new
<p><a href="/facts/Curvilinear_coordinates/RQD7Cajd">Curvilinear coordinates</a> can be formulated in <a href="/facts/Tensor_calculus/VqecNRwX">tensor calculus</a>, with important applications in <a href="/facts/Physics/a7aH2y08">physics</a> and <a href="/facts/Engineering/RFVg8H3I">engineering</a>, particularly for describing transportation of physical quantities and deformation of matter in <a href="/facts/Fluid_mechanics/NIy4tRfE">fluid mechanics</a> and <a href="/facts/Continuum_mechanics/vI7LpFDk">continuum mechanics</a>. </p>
