Engineering mathematics : a foundation for electronic, electrical, communications and systems engineers

Engineering Mathematics is the unparalleled undergraduate textbook for students of electrical, electronic, communications and systems engineering.  Tried and tested over many years, this widely used textbook is now in its 5th edition, having been fully updated and revised.  This new edition includes an even greater emphasis on the application of mathematics within a range of engineering contexts.  It features detailed explanation of why a technique is important to engineers.  In addition, it provides essential guidance in how to use mathematics to solve engineering problems. This approach ensures a deep and practical understanding of the role of mathematics in modern engineering. Features      Two disciplines, one book:  Integrates engineering and mathematics through an applications focused treatment.   Provides motivation for study:  Provides detailed explanation of why a technique is important to engineers.      Clear and comprehensive coverage: Detailed guidance on how to use each mathematical technique.      Builds from foundation to advanced techniques:  Carefully develops the full range of mathematical techniques most appropriate to students of electrical, electronic, systems and communications engineering.      Extensive revision to ensure up to date coverage:  Includes updated treatment of integral transform methods, including the Laplace, z and Fourier transforms.      Links theory and practice:  Numerous examples to illustrate mathematical theory and its application to engineering.      Exercises throughout the book enable students to test their understanding.  Answers provided in the book.   New to this edition   Thorough content update, including new material on Bessels equation and Bessel functions.   Significantly expanded Engineering Application feature shows students how mathematics is used in different real-world engineering contexts.   New Technical Computing Exercises provide guidance and support in the use of MATLAB.       Anthony Croft is Professor of Mathematics Education at Loughborough University.
