respectively – so Eqs. (3.3)–(3.5) are particular cases of Eqs. (5.3), (5.7), and (5.11).
In view of the (3 × 3) matrix representation of a tensor, one may retrieve all operations presented before to some length – as they are applicable also to tensors; this includes addition of matrices as per Eq. (4.4), multiplication of scalar by matrix as per Eq. (4.20), and multiplication of matrices as per Eq. (4.47). A number of operations specifically dealing with, or leading to tensors are, in addition, worth mentioning on their own – all of the multiplicative type, in view of the underlying portfolio of applications thereof.
One such multiplicative operation is the dyadic product of two vectors, u and v – also known as matrix product of the said vectors, since the first vector is multiplied by the transpose of the second via the algorithm labeled as Eq. (4.47); it is accordingly represented by
(5.12)
as opposed to Eq. (3.52) – and readily degenerates to
which abides to the definition of tensor conveyed by Eq. (5.1). The said representation is equivalent to
where the j ’s denote the unit vectors oriented along one of the Cartesian axes, previously labeled as Eqs. (3.3)–(3.5); comparative inspection of Eqs. (5.1) and (5.13) and of Eqs. (5.2) and (5.14) indicates that the double products of j 's can be seen as matrix products of the corresponding unit vectors, according to

In view of Eqs. (5.15)–(5.23), one may rewrite Eq. (5.14) as
(5.24)
– or, in a more condensed fashion,
(5.25)
provided that i and j denote x (i = 1 or j = 1), y (i = 2 or j = 2), or z (i = 3 or j = 3).
One may now briefly refer to the multiplication of scalar α by tensor τ – represented by
(5.26)
which may be rewritten as
(5.27)
in view of Eq. (5.2); the distributive and commutative properties of multiplication of scalar by matrix as per Eq. (4.34) produces

or, in condensed form,
