Title: Computer methods for engineering with MATLAB applications
Description: "Written by an internationally respected field expert from Rutgers, this second edition enables a basic understanding of mathematical methods involved in numerical computer analysis and highlights issues of particular importance to the field of engineering. Fully updated to take advantage of MATLAB℗ʼ improvements, the book also provides background materials for the development of procedures and solving schemes and procedures, such as interpolation and root solving. To aid computer engineering students in their use of MATLAB℗ʼ, the text includes a chapter on basics and programming and engineering problems at the end of each chapter. A solutions manual is available for qualifying instructors"--

"Computer methods continue to be critical in the analysis, simulation, design and optimization of engineering processes and systems. Computational approaches are needed to solve the complex mathematical equations that typically arise in engineering problems, for correlating experimental data, and for obtaining numerical results that are used for improving existing processes and developing new ones. The second edition follows the basic ideas, discussions, approaches, and presentation employed in the first edition. The focus is clearly on engineering processes and systems and on the equations that characterize and describe these. Computer methods that are employed to solve these equations and the nature and validity of the numerical results obtained are discussed for a variety of problems. The main thrust is on the discussion of the various numerical methods that are available for a given problem, on the presentation of the basic aspects of the methods, discussing their applicability, efficiency and behavior, and then applying these to typical problems chosen from various engineering disciplines"--
