Because there are such a large set of applications using dot products across engineering, the reader is encouraged to explore any paper that describes computational fluid dynamics, computational structural dynamics and controls. For aerospace applications, the suite of American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) journals and the Journal of the American Helicopter Society (JAHS) include a number of these papers.

Any paper that discusses the development of computational methods that resolve the fluids, structural or dynamics equations of motion illustrate the use of dot products.
