Description
This textbook teaches students how to write computer programs on the MATLAB platform and to use many of MATLAB's built-in functions to solve engineering-type problems. To students, MATLAB's built-in functions are black boxes. By combining a textbook on MATLAB with basic numerical and analytical analysis, the mystery of what the black boxes contain is somewhat alleviated. Within each chapter there are exercises related to the topics just covered. The text contains many examples from mechanical, civil, aeronautical, and electrical engineering.
Reviews / Votes
"...provides in a very simple and clear way the first skills in computer programming under the MATLAB platform. The author uses various mathematical concepts (matrices, roots of equations, integration, ordinary differential equations, interpolation, etc.) in order to solve mathematical problems associated with engineering type problems. ...the graphic of the work is fairly suggestive and assists a smooth learning."-Zentralblatt MATH 1284
