The best-selling introductory mathematics textbook for students on engineering and science degree and pre-degree courses. Sales stand at more than half a million copies world-wide.

Beginning with linear algebra and later expanding into calculus of variations, Advanced Engineering Mathematics provides accessible and comprehensive mathematical preparation for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students taking engineering courses. This book offers a review of standard mathematics coursework while effectively integrating science and engineering throughout the text.

ADVANCED ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS, 8E is written specifically for students like you, who are primarily interested in how to effectively apply mathematical techniques to solve advanced engineering problems. Numerous examples include illustrations of mathematical techniques as well as applications. A "Math in Context" feature clearly demonstrates how the mathematical concepts and methods you are learning relate to current engineering problems. The book is organized into seven distinctive parts to provide precise focus on the individual mathematical ideas and methods.

A long-standing, best-selling, comprehensive textbook covering all the mathematics required on upper level engineering mathematics undergraduate courses. Its unique approach takes you through all the mathematics you need in a step-by-step fashion with a wealth of examples and exercises. The text demands that you engage with it by asking you to complete steps that you should be able to manage from previous examples or knowledge you have acquired, while carefully introducing new steps. By working with the authors through the examples, you become proficient as you go.

This package includes the printed hardcover book and access to the Navigate Companion Website.The seventh edition of Advanced Engineering Mathematics provides learners with a modern and comprehensive compendium of topics that are most often covered in courses in engineering mathematics, and is extremely flexible to meet the unique needs of courses ranging from ordinary differential equations, to vector calculus, to partial differential equations. Acclaimed author, Dennis G.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics, 10th Edition is known for its comprehensive coverage, careful and correct mathematics, outstanding exercises, and self-contained subject matter parts for maximum flexibility. The new edition continues with the tradition of providing instructors and students with a comprehensive and up-to-date resource for teaching and learning engineering mathematics, that is, applied mathematics for engineers and physicists, mathematicians and computer scientists, as well as members of other disciplines.

ASM Handbook, Volume 8: Mechanical Testing and Evaluation describes the mechanical behavior of metals, composites, ceramics, and polymers and how it translates to measurable properties that can be used in product design and manufacturing. It explains how to acquire and analyze property data from a wide range of tests, including tension, compression, bend, and shear tests, micro and macro-scale hardness tests, and tests for friction and wear. It also describes creep and stress-relaxation testing, impact and fracture toughness testing, fatigue testing, and high strain rate testing.

This unique book is dedicated to the application of self-consistent methods to the solution of static and dynamic problems of the mechanics and physics of composite materials. 

The effective elastic, electric, dielectric, thermo-conductive and other properties of composite materials reinforced by ellipsoidal, spherical multi-layered inclusions, thin hard and soft inclusions, short fibers and unidirected multi-layered fibers are considered. The book contains many concrete results.

The theory of heterogeneous materials has been intensively developed during the past few decades. The main reason for the interest of many researchers in this part of the mechanics of solids is the wide area of application of hete- geneous materials in modern material engineering. Self-consistent methods form a well-known branch of the theory of heterogeneous materials. In most books devoted to the mechanics and physics of heterogeneous media, the reader can ?nd self-consistent solutions.
