Essential MATLAB for Scientists and Engineers


Book Description

Based on a teach-yourself approach, the fundamentals of MATLAB are illustrated throughout with many examples from a number of different scientific and engineering areas, such as simulation, population modelling, and numerical methods, as well as from business and everyday life. Some of the examples draw on first-year university level maths, but these are self-contained so that their omission will not detract from learning the principles of using MATLAB.This completely revised new edition is based on the latest version of MATLAB. New chapters cover handle graphics, graphical user interfaces (GUIs), structures and cell arrays, and importing/exporting data. The chapter on numerical methods now includes a general GUI-driver ODE solver.* Maintains the easy informal style of the first edition* Teaches the basic principles of scientific programming with MATLAB as the vehicle* Covers the latest version of MATLAB




Design Graphics for Engineering Communication


Book Description

With the use of real world examples and illustrations, Design Graphics for Engineering Communication introduces students to the fundamental concepts of Engineering Graphics and their role in the design process. The authors highlight common techniques, practices, and standards used in industry in a manner that is motivating and easy to understand. Topics include visualization, orthographic projection, dimensions and tolerances, scaling, and parametric solid modeling. Opportunities to practice, study, and learn abound, with problems at the end of each chapter, quizzes, and assembly modeling projects.




Engineering Drawing And Design Student Edition 2002


Book Description

Provides students with technical approaches to creating and providing technical drawings. This edition offers coverage of digital preparation, and the storage and retrieval of technical drawings. It offers students and instructors: computer access to problems and drawings in the student text, related workbook, and a Student Tutorial CD-ROM.




Visualization and Engineering Design Graphics with Augmented Reality Third Edition


Book Description

This book is designed as a learning tool to help the aspiring engineer learn the language of engineering graphics. In this regard, this book is hardly unique, as there have been literally hundreds of books published in the past that had a similar goal. The main challenge faced by engineering graphics books comes from the difficulty of representing and describing three dimensional information on paper, which is a consequence of the two dimensional nature of printed materials. What makes this book invaluable is the use of Augmented Reality, a technology that will allow you to escape the limitations of traditional materials enabling you, the student, to truly visualize the objects being described in full 3D. To take full advantage of this book you will need a smartphone, tablet or computer with a camera, along with the apps provided.* Many parts of the book are linked to specific augmented reality content through a series of black and white markers that have been seamlessly integrated throughout the pages. In order to experience the content, your device’s camera must be pointed at these markers. The main marker, available at the beginning of the book, is used to interact with the augmented reality models, which will be rendered in real time in your device’s screen. * If you do not have an iOS or Android device, or a computer with a webcam, SOLIDWORKS files of the models used throughout the book are available for download. In addition, STL files are available so the models can be opened using your solid modeling CAD package of choice or printed using a 3D printer.




Engineering Graphics Essentials


Book Description

Engineering Graphics Essentials Fourth Edition gives students a basic understanding of how to create and read engineering drawings by presenting principles in a logical and easy to understand manner. It coves the main topics of engineering graphics, including tolerancing and fasteners.

The enclosed independent learning DVD allows the learner to go through the topics of the book independently. The main content of the DVD contains pages that summarize the topics covered in the book. Each page has voice over content that simulates a lecture environment. There are also interactive examples that allow the learner to go through the instructor led and in class student exercises found in the book on their own. Video examples are also included to supplement the learning process. DVD Content: Summary pages with voice over lecture content Interactive exercises Video examples Supplemental problem solutions




Engineering Design Graphics with Autodesk Inventor 2020


Book Description

In Engineering Design Graphics with Autodesk Inventor 2020, award-winning CAD instructor and author James Bethune shows students how to use Autodesk Inventor to create and document drawings and designs. The author puts heavy emphasis on engineering drawings and on drawing components used in engineering drawings such as springs, bearings, cams, and gears. It shows how to create drawings using many different formats such as .ipt, .iam, ipn, and .idw for both English and metric units. It explains how to create drawings using the tools located under the Design tab and how to extract parts from the Content Center. Chapter test questions help students assess their understanding of key concepts. Sample problems, end-of-chapter projects, and a variety of additional exercises reinforce the material and allow students to practice the techniques described. The content of the book goes beyond the material normally presented in an engineering graphics text associated with CAD software to include exercises requiring students to design simple mechanisms. This book includes the following features: Step-by-step format throughout the text allows students to work directly from the text to the screen and provides an excellent reference during and after the course. Latest coverage for Autodesk Inventor 2020 is provided. Exercises, sample problems, and projects appear in each chapter, providing examples of software capabilities and giving students an opportunity to apply their own knowledge to realistic design situations. Examples show how to create an animated assembly, apply dimension to a drawing, calculate shear and bending values, and more. ANSI and ISO standards are discussed when appropriate, introducing students to both so they learn appropriate techniques and national standards.




C++ for Engineers and Scientists


Book Description

Bronson's second edition makes C++ accessible to first-level engineering students. The book teaches the fundamentals of the C++ language with a gradual refinement of programming skills from procedural to object-oriented. Part One presents procedural programming with an emphasis on modular program design. Part Two, on object-oriented programming, and Part Three, on data structures, are interchangeable to allow for teaching flexibility. In addition, students are introduced to the fundamentals of software engineering with an emphasis on problem-solving techniques, making the text an ideal choice for both one- and two-semester C++ programming courses.
