Zusatztext "The book is intended for first year engineering students and presumably this choice of subjects is a reflection of the course on which the author lectured. The book fulfills this purpose in a very satisfactory manner and can be warmly recommended for this purpose. The explanations are good and there is an adequacy of worked examples. ?A welcome feature is that indefinite integrals mentioned in the text all have included an arbitrary constant. ?Much of the book would be found useful for those in the last years at school."-Zentralblatt MATH "Each of the short sections covers the amount of material one would hope to get through in a lecture or two! typically giving a short introduction to the relevant theory and several worked examples. ?Jeffrey's book could be easily adopted as a course text! and the sections can be divided naturally into groups for shorter modules."-Times Higher Education Supplementead> Concise explanations and a wealth of examples form an ideal study guide and reference Informationen zum Autor Alan Jeffrey Klappentext This popular self-study/supplementary textbook covers in detail all mathematical requirements common to first year engineering students of every discipline. Thoroughly revised for the second edition, the book provides more worked examples and exercises, and more material on numerical computation and includes an introduction to using MATLAB and Maple software. It is organized into short sections specific to certain topics, which allows students to identify subjects of interest that they can study separately, with little background reading. The author provides numerous worked examples throughout the text, and for reference, includes lists of mathematical formulae, standard integrals, and Laplace transform pairs. Zusammenfassung A reference suitable for self-study, review, and fast answers to specific questions. It gives an introduction to using two of the most prevalent software packages in engineering: Maple and MATLAB. It includes the topics typically covered in first-year undergraduate engineering mathematics courses, organized into short, easily digestible sections. Inhaltsverzeichnis Not available...
