Woldemar Voigt (September 2, 1850 - December 13, 1919) was a German physicist.
Voigt profile and Voigt notation are named after him.
Voigt's work was far ahead of its time and went apparently un-noticed by all those who contributed to the development of special relativity (George FitzGerald and Oliver Heaviside, Joseph Larmor, Hendrik Lorentz, Henri Poincaré and Albert Einstein)

 Woldemar Voigt - WoldemarVoigt
Voigt was also a musician and became known as a Bach expert.
In 1887 Voigt formulated a form of the Lorentz transformation between a rest frame of reference and a frame moving with speed v in the x direction.

 Tensor Information - tensor lamps
The tensor table lamps notation was developed around 1890 by Gregorio Ricci-Curbastro under the title absolute differential geometry, and was made accessible to many mathematicians by the publication of Tullio Levi-Civita's cumulant tensor decomposition classic text The Absolute Differential Calculus in 1900 (in Italian; translations followed).
Physicists and engineers are among the first to recognise that vectors and tensors have tensor lamps a physical significance as entities, which goes beyond the (often arbitrary) co-ordinate system in which their components are enumerated.
Thus, einstein's tensor notation instead of simply having 70 values as indicated in the above example, for a rank 3 tensor field with dimensions <2, 5, 7> every point in the space would have 70 values associated with tensor fascia muscle it.

 Woldemar Voigt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He was born in Leipzig, and died in Göttingen.
Since Voigt's transformation preserves the speed of light in all frames, the Michelson-Morley experiment and the Kennedy-Thorndike experiment can not distinguish between the two transformations.
According to Voigt's first judgement, the Michelson experiment must yield a null result, independently of whether the Earth transports the luminiferous aether with it (Fizeau's 1st aether hypothesis), or whether the Earth moves through an entirely independent, self-consistent universal luminiferous aether (Fizeau's 2nd aether hypothesis).

To matrix analysts, this might be the distinction between a row and a column vector; to physicists more comfortable with Dirac notation, it is the distinction between a bra and a ket.
I was exposed roughly concurrently to two different perspectives on tensor algebra: in an abstract algebra class we talked about tensor products of groups and modules and vector spaces in a very general setting, and in a Riemannian geometry class we spoke of tensors in terms of multilinear forms.
Notation is also under-appreciated, and not only as the way that programmers tell comptuers what to do.

In consequence, subscript notation, which explicitly shows how to carry out an operation and needs no special symbols, is more common in tensor analysis than in vector analysis.
Mathematicians and physicists tend to regard, with some justification, kinematic quantities such as displacement, deformation and strain as more fundamental than force and stress and so their textbooks usually deal with these first.

 Voigtsche Notation - Wikipedia
Unter der Voigtschen Notation versteht man eine praktische Schreibweise für symmetrische Tensoren in der Kristallographie, benannt nach dem Göttinger Physiker Woldemar Voigt.
Diese Notation erlaubt es, das Hookesche Gesetz als Matrixgleichung zu schreiben: die Verknüpfung von Verzerrung und Verspannung erfolgt dann durch eine einfach zu handhabende quadratische 6×6-Matrix.
Die erhebliche Vereinfachung dieser Notation wird allerdings damit erkauft, dass in dieser Darstellung die Tensoreigenschaften des Hookeschen Gesetzes verlorengehen!
