The text is designed to develop a strong working knowledge of MATLAB's syntax and instruction set, and to use this capability to write efficient, compact programs to solve mechanical engineering problems of varying complexity. Emphasis is placed on MATLAB programming. Presents summaries of the important principles and formulas in the major topics in a given area. Illustrates the material with a graduated set of problems. Provides sets of exercises in each topic area. Demonstrates the fundamental importance of matrix notation and definitions.

From the Back Cover:

The primary goal of An Engineer's Guide to MATLAB is to help the reader develop a strong knowledge of MATLAB to solve a wide range of engineering problems. Matrix notation is introduced at the outset and employed consistently in all illustrative scripts and functions to create compact, readable, and efficient MATLAB scripts. There is an emphasis on displaying the results graphically. The book can also be used as a reference for obtaining numerical solutions to a wide range of engineering problems, as a source of applications of a wide variety of MATLAB solution techniques and as a supplement for many engineering courses.

Features
