Synopsis

Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, Second Edition, is a handy, compact reference work containing concise discussions of mathematical concepts and formulas frequently needed by students and professionals in engineering, science, applied math and statistics. One of the book's special features is its comprehensive table of integrals arranged and formatted to facilitate the rapid location of the right form. Tables of derivatives; calculus applications; graphs of important Cartesian and polar curves; and formulas from algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus and statistics have also been arranged with convenience in mind.
The book also lists infinite series and includes discussions and formula listings in differential equations and in advanced topics such as Fourier series, Laplace and z-transforms, vector analysis, and orthogonal polynomials. Important physical constants and numerical tables of probability distributions such as normal, Poisson, t, chi square, and F are provided. Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, Second Edition, is a volume every student or professional working with engineering mathematics should have in their coat pocket.

Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, Second Edition has been updated and expanded to cover even more calculus applications and additional topics, including Z-transforms, orthogonal polynomials, Bessel functions, and a summary of probability distributions.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas, a revision of a very successful pocket book, provides a handy desk-top reference for engineers and scientists seeking essential formulas, concepts, and definitions. Topics range from pre-calculus to vector analysis and from Fourier transforms to statistics.
This third edition contains:

  • A new chapter on business and financial mathematics - providing information on progressions, especially geometric progressions, which is the basis for many formulas related to annuities, growth of funds, and interest payments
  • Additional topics in statistics - including sample size calculations for testing differences and proportions
    Featuring numerical tables of probability distributions, the book also includes
  • Discussions on formula listings and differential equations
  • Fourier series
  • Laplace and z-transforms
  • Vector analysis
  • Orthogonal polynomials
    Many other handbooks go too far in their attempts, essentially mimicking larger comprehensive texts they try to summarize. The result is a reference less detailed than the full texts and too big to be conveniently portable. Most scientists do not carry them.
    Through a careful selection of topics and detail, Pocket Book of Integrals and Mathematical Formulas truly meets the needs of engineers and scientists - a convenient, usable supplementary text providing worked examples where most necessary. Its comprehensive information and convenient arrangement of tables makes it an essential and easy to use reference.
