Synopses & Reviews
The fifteen chapters in this guidebook cover separate aspects of engineering but embrace a wide spectrum of fluid and structural mechanics, chemical, civil, systems, and control engineering. Subjects are covered in sufficient depth to place the physics of the problem into context and enable a mathematical model to be derived. Describes several engineering fields where mathematics plays an important role. Written by engineers so that it contains very little mathematical jargon.
