Computer Methods for Engineering: Computational & Physical Processes in Mechanics & Thermal Sciences - Textbook for Engineering Students & Professionals | STEM Education, Research & Practical Applications

A text for use in sophomore and junior engineering courses, with some material noted as advanced for sophomores. Discusses numerical methods for mathematical operations, such as integration, root solving, and differentiation, and presents the solution of ordinary and partial differential equations. Problems from basic sciences and various engineering disciplines illustrate methods. Uses mainly FORTRAN 77 to demonstrate implementation of numerical methods on the computer, with a few examples in BASIC. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
