Mathematics & Statistics for Engineers

This easy-to-follow book offers a statistico-geometrical approach for dating ancient star catalogs. The authors' scientific methods reveal statistical properties of ancient catalogs and overcome the difficulties of their dating originated by the low accuracy of these catalogs...

This book provides a systematic approach to the various methods available for deriving a Green’s function. It begins by reviewing the historical development of the Green’s function, the Fourier and Laplace transforms, the classical special functions of Bessel functions and Legendre polynomials, and ..

Handbook and Atlas of Curves..

The Handbook of Statistics for Teaching and Research in Plant and Crop Science presents the fundamental concepts of important statistical methods and experimental designs to the students and researchers who need to apply them to their own specific problems. This comprehensive handbook takes what can..

TeX makes typesetting for mathematical manuscripts, papers, and presentations seem simple. Like much user-friendly software, it is a powerful tool that jump-starts the novice by making the basic decisions. But the more difficult decisions - like page design, running heads, formatting of equations, c..

To keep pace with and further advance the rapidly developing field of applied control technologies, engineers, both present and future, need some systematic training in the analytic theory and rigorous design of fuzzy control systems. This book provides that training by introducing a rigorous and co..

Introduction To The Calculus of Variations And Its Applications..

Beyond calculus, mathematics grows increasingly abstract and places new demands on those first entering that realm. Many students are ill prepared for more advanced work that requires the ability to understand and construct proofs. This text helps readers bridge that gap. It teaches them to work wi..

Map ProjectionsTheory and Applications..

The capability of computer algebra systems for creating animations has given mathematics instructors a powerful means of demonstrating mathematical concepts. But learning to make animations generally requires extensive searching for the pertinent functions. This book brings together virtually all of..

Material Inhomogeneities in Elasticity..

This book presents research advances in materials behavior using fractal analysis, mathematical modeling and simulation, and other methods. Examined are electrical, mechanical, optical, and magnetic properties; size; morphology; and chemical behavior of such materials as aerogels, polymer films, nan..
