This text presents MATLAB both as a mathematical tool and a programming language, giving a concise and easy to master introduction to its potential and power. Stressing the importance of a structured approach to problem solving, the text gives a step-by-step method for program design and algorithm development. The fundamentals of MATLAB are illustrated throughout with many examples from a wide range of familiar scientific and engineering areas, as well as from everyday life.
Features:
Numerous simple exercises provide hands-on learning of MATLABs functions
A new chapter on dynamical systems shows how a structured approach is used to solve more complex problems.
Common errors and pitfalls highlighted
Concise introduction to useful topics for solving problems in later engineering and science courses: vectors as arrays, arrays of characters, GUIs, advanced graphics, simulation and numerical methods
Text and graphics in four colour
Extensive instructor support
Essential MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists is an ideal textbook for a first course on MATLAB or an engineering problem solving course using MATLAB, as well as a self-learning tutorial for students and professionals expected to learn and apply MATLAB for themselves.
Additional material is available for lecturers only at http://textbooks.elsevier.com. This website provides lecturers with:
- A series of Powerpoint presentations to assist lecture preparation
- Extra quiz questions and problems
- Additional topic material
- M-files for the exercises and examples in the text (also available to students at the books companion site)
- Solutions to exercises
