Résumé

Steven Chapra's new text, Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists, is written for engineers and scientists who want to learn numerical problem solving. Aimed at numerical methods users rather than developers, the text employs problems rather than mathematics to motivate readers. Guided by Chapra's proven student-oriented pedagogy, including chapter objectives, worked examples, and student-friendly problems, the reader builds a strong working knowledge of numerical problem solving while moving progressively through the text. Key Features

All numerical calculations in the text are performed in two computing environments, Microsoft's Excel and Mathwork's MATLAB.
Theory is only included when it has direct use to the student. Information related to the limitations of methods and to choosing among different methods is stressed throughout the book.
Students are shown how to develop simple, well structured macros and m-files to extend the base capabilities of these environments.
