Tensors

[dmhensi]

I have had success using the "/values/component_name.. structure to feed the components of a vector to Ascent.

My attempts to use this approach for a tensor ended in tears.

The code in Ascent appears to be limited to three components.

How should tensors or symtensors be handled?

Ascent does not currently support N-D tensors for N>3. We could look into adding that capability. For now, a workaround would be to store each dimension as a separate field.
