Matlab For Engineers

Divided into two parts, this book provides an introduction to MATLAB. The reader can learn the program by trying the commands described in the text and by experimenting with them. The second part of the book covers applications to specific engineering fields.

MATLAB is a powerful, comprehensive and easy-to-use environment for performing technical computations. It is an interactive program that helps you with numeric computation and data visualization. MATLAB for Engineers provides a clear and concise introduction to MATLAB and explores its use in solving engineering problems. Written for engineering students and practising engineers, the book shows how MATLAB can be used to perform calculations, store tables and interpolate between stored values, process numbers obtained by data-acquisitions systems and prepare engineering and research reports. The book is divided into two parts: Part I is a guided introduction to MATLAB which aims to teach the program in a hands-on fashion; Part II is an exploration of how MATLAB can be used to solve large classes of engineering problems in a variety of engineering disciplines.
