Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews math topics relevant to non-mathematics students and scientists, but which they may not have seen or studied for a while. These math issues can range from reading mathematical symbols, to using complex numbers, dealing with equations involved in calculating medication equivalents, the General Linear Model (GLM) used in e.g. neuroimaging analysis, finding the minimum of a function, independent component analysis, or filtering approaches. Almost every student or scientist, will at some point run into mathematical formulas or ideas in scientific papers that may be hard to understand, given that formal math education may be some years ago. In this book we will explain the theory behind many of these mathematical ideas and expressions and provide readers with the tools to better understand them. We will revisit high school mathematics and extend and relate this to the mathematics you need to understand the math you may encounter in the course of your research. This book will help you understand the math and formulas in the scientific papers you read. To achieve this goal, each chapter mixes theory with practical pen-and-paper exercises such that you (re)gain experience with solving math problems yourself. Mnemonics will be taught whenever possible. To clarify the math and help readers apply it, each chapter provides real-world and scientific examples. In this new edition, two new chapters covering statistics and differential equations have been added, which have been workshopped in the 'authors' popular lecture series in order to maximize the benefit for readers.

This book was released on 2010-06-22 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classroom-tested, Advanced Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering, Second Edition presents methods of applied mathematics that are particularly suited to address physical problems in science and engineering. Numerous examples illustrate the various methods of solution and answers to the end-of-chapter problems are included at the back of the book. After introducing integration and solution methods of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), the book presents Bessel and Legendre functions as well as the derivation and methods of solution of linear boundary value problems for physical systems in one spatial dimension governed by ODEs. It also covers complex variables, calculus, and integrals; linear partial differential equations (PDEs) in classical physics and engineering; the derivation of integral transforms; Green’s functions for ODEs and PDEs; asymptotic methods for evaluating integrals; and the asymptotic solution of ODEs. New to this edition, the final chapter offers an extensive treatment of numerical methods for solving non-linear equations, finite difference differentiation and integration, initial value and boundary value ODEs, and PDEs in mathematical physics. Chapters that cover boundary value problems and PDEs contain derivations of the governing differential equations in many fields of applied physics and engineering, such as wave mechanics, acoustics, heat flow in solids, diffusion of liquids and gases, and fluid flow. An update of a bestseller, this second edition continues to give students the strong foundation needed to apply mathematical techniques to the physical phenomena encountered in scientific and engineering applications.

Book excerpt: This rich collection of fully worked problems in many areas of mathematics covers all the important subjects students are likely to encounter in their courses, from introductory to final-year undergraduate classes. Because lecture courses tend to focus on theory rather than examples, these exercises offer a valuable complement to classroom teachings, promoting the understanding of mathematical techniques and helping students prepare for exams. They will prove useful to undergraduates in mathematics; students in engineering, physics, and chemistry; and postgraduate scientists looking for a way to refresh their skills in specific topics. The problems can supplement lecture notes and any conventional text. Starting with functions, inequalities, limits, differentiation, and integration, topics encompass integral inequalities, power series and convergence, complex variables, hyperbolic function, vector and matrix algebra, Laplace transforms, Fourier series, vector calculus, and many other subjects.

This book was released on 2014-07-15 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scholastic Forum Series on Mathematical Analysis for Scientists and Engineers covers seven key areas. These are designed to bridge the gap between having mathematical skills and actually applying them. If recently, or years ago, you took mathematics courses that are pre-requisites to the technical courses in your major, and need help in figuring out when, or how, to apply the math skills in your present undertakings, the Scholastic Forum Series is for you. Series No. 2 is on Calculus Review, and is intended for science and engineering students at the sophomore/junior standing who have taken most of the Calculus courses including Ordinary Differential Equations (ODE) and Linear Algebra. The review covers differentiation, integration, and ODE. Chapter 1 emphasizes the relevance of Calculus to solving real life problems in science and engineering, and goes over a few key techniques that undergird successful application of Calculus in problem solving. Each of the subsequent chapters includes diagnostic test with solution, followed by detailed review notes. End of Chapter problems are designed to test the reader?s understanding of the subject. Solution to these problems is provided in the book. Other books in the series are: An Introduction to Mathematical Analysis (Series No. 1), Linear Equations (Series No. 3), Non-Linear Equations (Series No.4), Data Analysis and Statistics (Series No. 5), Numerical Calculus (Series No. 6), and Advanced Topics in Analysis (Series No. 7).
