Chapter three introduces techniques for finding extreme values associated with functionals. The Euler-Lagrange equations are developed for a variety of functionals. The fourth chapter develops some of the more detailed concepts associated with the subject area of calculus of variations. The fifth and sixth chapters consider various applied engineering applications of the calculus of variations. Selected applied topics are developed together with necessary solution methods.There are three Appendices. The Appendix A contains units of measurements from the Systeme International Unites along with some selected physical constants. The Appendix B contains gives the representation of the gradient, divergence and curl in Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical coordinates. The Appendix C contains solutions to selected exercises.
