X.B.1 Components of vectors and tensors

When performing tensorial calculations, or post-processing results, one manipulates 1D or 2D arrays of real values corresponding to the components of vectors or tensors in a specified coordinate system. Higher order tensors also exist, but they are not manipulated in FeResPost and the theory for tensor order larger than 2 is not presented here.
