Studying engineering, whether it is mechanical, electrical or civil relies heavily on an understanding of mathematics. This new textbook clearly demonstrates the relevance of mathematical principles and shows how to apply them to solve real-life engineering problems. It deliberately starts at an elementary level so that students who are starting from a low knowledge base will be able to quickly get up to the level required. Students who have not studied mathematics for some time will find this an excellent refresher. Each chapter starts with the basics before gently increasing in complexity. A full outline of essential definitions, formulae, laws and procedures are introduced before real world situations, practicals and problem solving demonstrate how the theory is applied. Focusing on learning through practice, it contains examples, supported by 1,600 worked problems and 3,000 further problems contained within exercises throughout the text. In addition, 34 revision tests are included at regular intervals. An interactive companion website is also provided containing 2,750 further problems with worked solutions and instructor materials

Engineering Mathematics is a comprehensive pre-degree maths text for vocational courses and foundation modules at degree level in the U.K.. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and can be worked through at the student's own pace. Theory is kept to a minimum, placing a firm emphasis on problem-solving skills, and making this a thoroughly practical introduction to the core mathematics needed for engineering studies and practice. Throughout the book assessment papers are provided that are ideal for use as tests or homework. These are the only problems where answers are not provided in the book. Full worked solutions are available to lecturers only as a free download from the Newnes website: www.newnespress.com

The Congressional Record is the official record of the proceedings and debates of the United States Congress. It is published daily when Congress is in session. The Congressional Record began publication in 1873. Debates for sessions prior to 1873 are recorded in The Debates and Proceedings in the Congress of the United States (1789-1824), the Register of Debates in Congress (1824-1837), and the Congressional Globe (1833-1873)

Developed from celebrated Harvard statistics lectures, Introduction to Probability provides essential language and tools for understanding statistics, randomness, and uncertainty. The book explores a wide variety of applications and examples, ranging from coincidences and paradoxes to Google PageRank and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Additional application areas explored include genetics, medicine, computer science, and information theory. The print book version includes a code that provides free access to an eBook version. The authors present the material in an accessible style and motivate concepts using real-world examples. Throughout, they use stories to uncover connections between the fundamental distributions in statistics and conditioning to reduce complicated problems to manageable pieces. The book includes many intuitive explanations, diagrams, and practice problems. Each chapter ends with a section showing how to perform relevant simulations and calculations in R, a free statistical software environment.

Includes over 800 worked examples and 1,500 problems. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked though at the student's own pace. This has been proved by the thousands of students guided to exam success by previous editions of this book and the highly popular companion title Engineering Mathematics. A wide and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a wide range of degree modules and institution-devised HNC/D units. However, it has been written to match specifically the final specifications of the set units from Edexcel for the new Higher National scheme: Analytical Methods for Engineers (core unit: 21717P); Further Analytical Methods for Engineers (21775P); Engineering Mathematics (21766P). It is also suitable for the 'phase 1' Higher National units (9500M, 9529M). ADOPTING LECTURERS Lecturers adopting 'Higher Engineering Mathematics' as their main course text can obtain a free 150 page Instructors Manual comprising worked solutions and a mark scheme for the Assignments in the student text.
