Basic engineering mathematics, 4ed — Jhon Bird

Basic Engineering Mathematics, 4th Edition introduces and then consolidates basic mathematical principles and promotes awareness of mathematical concepts for students needing a broad base for further vocational studies. In this fourth edition, new material has been added on engineering notation, inequalities, graphs with logarithmic scales and adding waveforms, together with extra practical problems interspersed throughout the text.

Basic Engineering Mathematics 4th Edition provides a lead into Engineering Mathematics 4th Edition.

Each topic considered in the text is presented in a way that assumes in the reader little previous knowledge of that topic. Theory is introduced in each chapter by a brief outline of essential theory, definitions, formulae, laws and procedures. However, these are kept to a minimum, for problem solving is extensively used to establish and exemplify the theory. It is intended that readers will gain real understanding through seeing problems solved and then solving similar problems themselves.

This textbook contains some 600 worked problems, followed by over 1050 further problems (all with answers – at the end of the book). The further problems are contained ] within some 129 Exercises; each Exercise follows on directly from the relevant section of work. 260 line diagrams enhance the understanding of the theory. Where at all possible the problems mirror practical situations found in engineering and science.
