Synopsis

Carefully designed to be the undergraduate textbook for a sequence of courses in advanced engineering mathematics, the student will find plentiful practice problems throughout that present opportunities to work with and apply the concepts, and to build skills and experience in mathematical reasoning and engineering problem solving. "Advanced Engineering Mathematics" is unique in its blend of mathematical elegance, clear, understandable exposition and wealth of topics that are crucial to the aspiring or practising engineer. Chapter ending projects which offer insights into ideas are presented in the chapter. It includes abundant applied examples and exercises, and coverage of other useful material not usually found in other advanced engineering mathematics books.

About this title

From the Back Cover

The design of the International Space Station was the result of extensive and detailed collaboration among researchers in engineering, space science, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, and other fields.Mathematics provided essential and multiple links among these disciplines. Its contributions
included the specification of launch and orbital data, stress calculations for structural components, the study of gas flow from the combustion chamber, the design of high-precision
control systems for directing instruments at stellar objects, and image processing of observational data.
Advanced Engineering Mathematics presents topics such as the Laplace transform, complex
analysis, vector calculus, and ordinary and partial differential equations as the tools with which
control theory, the dynamic behavior of structures, elasticity, gas dynamics, and other applications are built. An overview of key aspects of numerical mathematics directs attention to sophisticated and highly optimized numerical packages that are used in current research and development.

Review

Advance praise "I loved this material ... The exposition is clear. The level is fine for 2nd year mechanical engineering students in this country." -A.C. King, University of Birmingham, UK
