Opis

This book is an introduction to modern numerical methods in engineering. It covers applications in fluid mechanics, structural mechanics, and heat transfer as the most relevant fields for engineering disciplines such as computational engineering, scientific computing, mechanical engineering as well as chemical and civil engineering. The content covers all aspects in the interdisciplinary field which are essential for an ''up-to-date'' engineer.

Recenzje

From the reviews:

"This book covers several important methods used in engineering models. ... this book may provide engineers with an introduction to numerical methods ... . the book will be of more ... value to those interested in the computational aspects of the problems, or to those interested in the mathematics." (Jeffrey Putnam, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (5), 2008)
