Mathematics is crucial to all aspects of engineering and technology. Understanding key mathematical concepts and applying them successfully to solve problems are vital skills every engineering student must acquire. This text teaches, applies and nurtures those skills.
Mathematics for Engineers is informal, accessible and practically oriented. The material is structured so students build up their knowledge and understanding gradually. The interactive examples have been carefully designed to encourage students to engage fully in the problem-solving process.
For courses in Introductory Technical Communication.
Technical Communication: A Practical Approach 7e emphasizes one simple principle? you learn to write better by doing as much writing as possible. Using numbered guidelines and an ABC format, the book shows how to write a variety of technical documents and gets students practicing at the beginning of the book. This edition features new material on modular writing, a new chapter on collaborative writing and a comprehensive case study that reflects globalization and ethics issues.
Fully updated to comply with MATLAB 2008, Engineering Computation with MATLAB? Second Edition introduces the power of computing to engineering students with no programming experience. Professor and trained engineer, David Smith, places the fundamental tenets of computer programming into the context of MATLAB 2008, employing hands-on exercises, examples from the engineering industry, and a variety of core tools to increase programming proficiency and capability. With this knowledge, students are prepared to adapt learned concepts to other programming languages.
For Introductory courses in Engineering and Computer Science.
With a hands-on approach and focus on problem solving, this introduction to the powerful Matlab computing language is designed for students with only a basic college algebra background. Numerous examples are drawn from a range of engineering disciplines, demonstrating Matlab?s applications to a broad variety of problems.

MATLAB 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, 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
This book is a core text for undergraduate courses in quantity surveying, building surveying and Building and EDEXCEL courses. It is also an excellent reference text for professionals in the building industry.
