Advanced Engineering Mathematics
Product Description This market leading text is known for its comprehensive coverage, careful and correct mathematics, outstanding exercises and self contained subject matter parts for maximum flexibility. Thoroughly updated and streamlined to reflect new developments in the field, the ninth edition of this bestselling text features modern engineering applications and the uses of technology. Kreyszig introduces engineers and computer scientists to advanced math topics as they relate to practical problems. The material is arranged into seven independent parts: ODE; Linear Algebra, Vector Calculus; Fourier Analysis and Partial Differential Equations; Complex Analysis; Numerical methods; Optimization, graphs; and Probability and Statistics. Book Info Presents to students of engineering, physics, mathematics, & computer science those areas of mathematics which, from a modern point of view, are most important in connection with practical problems. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Reader Reviews This review is from: Advanced Engineering Mathematics (Hardcover) I am currently using this massive book as it is the required text for my Engineering Math I course (MS Mech Eng). I heartily agree with others who claim to find this book is not thorough enough in the subjects it covers. BUT, out of curiosity I have delved into the book and studied the chapters covering material I am familiar with I saw in previous courses (Diff Equations, 4 Calculus courses, Control Systems, Linear Systems, Numerical Methods) and I have to say... it is an ALL encompassing book, and the tremendous amount of material in it has is a credit to itself. Do not criticize this book because you failed in understanding a subject when using it, I myself am currenly a victim of this situation. Go find a book which treats only the topic (Laplace, Fourier, Linear Algebra, etc.) you're covering now, study it, and return it. Keep Kreyszig's as a handy reference. Mathematics is an extensive science, this "handbook" for us beginners is one of the best there is. Question: Did any of you Mechanical Engineers use MARKS' Handbook for your Fluid Mechanics course, or Shigley's Machine Design Handbook for learning how to design gears? Comment (1) | | (Report this)
