Tables of Complex Hyperbolic and Circular Functions (Classic Reprint)

This book is the groundbreaking work of the late Prof. A.E. Kennelly, who was a renowned electrical engineer and professor at Harvard University. Electrical engineers, mathematicians, and historians of science will find this tome an invaluable resource. Published in 1914, this book presents hyperbolic and circular functions of complex variables in polar and rectangular coordinates. The author's detailed explanations and carefully crafted examples make this book suitable even for those with only a basic understanding of mathematics. An appendix contains useful correcting factors and a table of semi-exponential functions. Kennelly's work provides a solid foundation for understanding the complex functions that underpin alternating-current lines and other electrical phenomena, making it an enduring contribution to the field of electrical engineering.
