On the natural laws and their formal description
Zoran Drašković
A brief survey of the development of the idea concerning the invariance of laws in physical theories is done. The tensor calculus is pointed out as an unsubstitutible calculus of invariants until now. A direct consequence of the adoption of the idea on invariance in the applied mechanics is mentioned, as well.
Key words: natural laws, invariance (covariance), tensor calculus. |
