基本説明
Short, modular chapters make the book flexible enough to be used on a wide variety of courses. Over 500 worked examples show how the techniques are applied and offer valuable guidance for the reader when tackling the problems. New to this edition - New self-check questions appear at the end of most sections to augment the end of chapter problems, giving students an additional opportunity to check their understanding. A new appendix covers one-dimensional analysis and units.
Full Description
Mathematical concepts and theories underpin much of the physical sciences and engineering. Yet maths is a subject that many students find challenging, and even intimidating - despite it being so central to their field of study.
Mathematical Techniques provides a complete course in mathematics, covering all the essential topics with which a physical sciences or engineering student should be familiar.
By breaking the subject into small, modular chapters, the book introduces and builds on concepts in a progressive, carefully-layered way - always with an emphasis on how to use the power of maths to best effect, rather than on theoretical proofs of the maths presented.
With a huge array of end of chapter problems, and new self-check questions, the fourth edition of Mathematical Techniques provides extensive opportunities for students to build their confidence in the best way possible: by using the maths for themselves.
