Enhance Your Students’ Mathematical Problem-Solving Ability Scientific Computing with MATLAB®, Second Edition improves students’ ability to tackle mathematical problems. It helps students understand the mathematical background and find reliable and accurate solutions to mathematical problems with the use of MATLAB, avoiding the tedious and complex technical details of mathematics. This edition retains the structure of its predecessor Solving Applied Mathematical Problems with MATLAB® while expanding and updating the content of each chapter.Based on the authors’ extensive teaching, research, and industrial experiences, the text adheres to the following course sequence: An overview of the computer languages suitable for mathematicsFundamentals of MATLAB programmingCalculus problemsLinear algebra problemsIntegral transforms and complex variable functionsNonlinear equations and optimization problemsDifferential equations problemsData interpolation and functional approximation problemsProbability and statistics problemsNontraditional methods, such as fuzzy logic, rough sets, neural networks, evolution algorithms, wavelets, and fractional calculus The book bridges the gap between problems and solutions through well-grouped topics and clear MATLAB example scripts and reproducible MATLAB-generated plots. Students can effortlessly experiment with the scripts for a deep, hands-on exploration. Each chapter also includes a set of problems to strengthen understanding of the material.
