Numerical Methods in Engineering with MATLAB

Hardcover: Numerical Methods in Engineering with MATLAB is a text for ³°³ ³°³ engineering students and a reference for practicing engineers, ³°³ ³°³ especially those who wish to explore the power and efficiency of ³°³ ³°³ MATLAB. Examples and applications were chosen for their relevance ³°³ ³°³ to real world problems, and where numerical solutions are most ³°³ ³°³ efficient. Numerical methods are discussed thoroughly and ³°³ ³°³ illustrated with problems involving both hand computation and ³°³ ³°³ programming. MATLAB mfiles accompany each method and are available ³°³ ³°³ on the book web site. This code is made simple and easy to ³°³ ³°³ understand by avoiding complex bookkeeping schemes, while ³°³ ³°³ maintaining the essential features of the method. MATLAB was chosen ³°³ ³°³ as the example language because of its ubiquitous use in ³°³ ³°³ engineering studies and practice. Moreover, it is widely available ³°³ ³°³ to students on school networks and through inexpensive educational ³°³ ³°³ versions. Explore numerical methods with MATLAB, a great tool for ³°³ ³°³ teaching scientific computation.About the AuthorJaan Kiusalaas is a ³°³ ³°³ Professor Emeritus in the School of Engineering Science and ³°³ ³°³ Mechanics at Pennsylvania State University. He has taught numerical ³°³ ³°³ methods, including finite element and boundary element methods for ³°³ ³°³ over 30 years. He is also the co-author of four other works, ³°³ ³°³ Engineering Mechanics: Statics, Engineering Mechanics: Dynamics, ³°³ ³°³ Mechanics of Materials, and an alternate version of this work with ³°³ ³°³ Python code. http://rapidshare.de/files/12795634/NumericalMethodsinEngineeringwithMATLABAug.2005.rar
