Synopsis

Get the essential tools for your courses in engineering, math, and science. MATLAB(r) is a high-level language and interactive environment that lets you focus on your course work and applications, rather than on programming details. It enables you to solve many numerical problems in a fraction of the time it takes to write a program in a lower-level language such as Java(t), C, C++, or Fortran. You can also use MATLAB to analyze and visualize data using automation capabilities, thereby avoiding the manual repetition common with other products. The MATLAB in Student Version provides all the features and capabilities of the professional version of MATLAB software, with no limitations. There are a few small differences between the Student Version interface and the professional version of MATLAB: * The MATLAB prompt in Student Version is EDU * Printouts contain this footer: Student Version of MATLAB For more information on this product please visit the MathWorks website: http://www.mathworks/academia/student_version/index.html IMPORTANT NOTE: Proof of student status is required for activation of license"

A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Joel Hass received his PhD from the University of California—Berkeley. He is currently a professor of mathematics at the University of California—Davis. He has coauthored six widely used calculus texts as well as two calculus study guides. He is currently on the editorial board of Geometriae Dedicata and Media-Enhanced Mathematics. He has been a member of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton University and of the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute, and he was a Sloan Research Fellow. Hass’s current areas of research include the geometry of proteins, three dimensional manifolds, applied math, and computational complexity. In his free time, Hass enjoys kayaking.

 

Maurice D. Weir holds a DA and MS from Carnegie-Mellon University and received his BS at Whitman College. He is a Professor Emeritus of the Department of Applied Mathematics at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California. Weir enjoys teaching Mathematical Modeling and Differential Equations. His current areas of research include modeling and simulation as well as mathematics education. Weir has been awarded the Outstanding Civilian Service Medal, the Superior Civilian Service Award, and the Schieffelin Award for Excellence in Teaching. He has coauthored eight books, including the University Calculus series and the twelfth edition of Thomas’ Calculus.

 

George B. Thomas, Jr. (late) of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was a professor of mathematics for thirty-eight years; he served as the executive officer of the department for ten years and as graduate registration officer for five years. Thomas held a spot on the board of governors of the Mathematical Association of America and on the executive committee of the mathematics division of the American Society for Engineering Education. His book, Calculus and Analytic Geometry, was first published in 1951 and has since gone through multiple revisions. The text is now in its twelfth edition and continues to guide students through their calculus courses. He also co-authored monographs on mathematics, including the text Probability and Statistics.

Quatrième de couverture

This book provides a complete course for first-year engineering mathematics. Whichever field of engineering you are studying, you will be most likely to require knowledge of the mathematics presented in this textbook. Taking a thorough approach, the authors put the concepts into an engineering context, so you can understand the relevance of mathematical techniques presented and gain a fuller appreciation of how to draw upon them throughout your studies.

Key features

• Comprehensive coverage of first-year engineering mathematics
• Fully worked examples and exercises provide relevance and reinforce the role of mathematics in the various branches of engineering
• Excellent coverage of engineering applications

New to this edition

• Fully integrated with MyMathLab, a powerful online homework, tutorial and self-study system
• More than 100 new worked examples
• Over 200 new exercises to help monitor progress with your learning and provide a more progressive level of difficulty
• Online ‘refresher units' covering topics you should have encountered at school but may not have used for some time
• MATLAB and MAPLE fully integrated, showing you how these powerful tools can be used to support your work in mathematics

Professor Glyn James is Emeritus Professor within the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Coventry University, having previously been Dean of the School of Mathematical and Information Science.

As in previous editions he has drawn upon the knowledge and experience of his co-authors to provide an excellent revision of the book.
