Bird's engineering mathematics / John Bird. - 9th edition. - xv, 742 pages: illustrations (black and white) ; 28 cm
Previous edition: published as Engineering mathematics. 2017.
Section 1: Number and algebraRevision of fractions, decimals and percentages Indices, standard form and engineering notation Binary, octal and hexadecimal numbers Calculations and evaluation of formulae Algebra Further algebra Partial fractions Solving simple equations Transposition of formulae Solving simultaneous equations Solving quadratic equations Inequalities Logarithms Exponential functions Number sequences The binomial series. Section 2: Trigonometry Introduction to trigonometry Trigonometric waveforms Cartesian and polar co-ordinates Triangles and some practical applications Trigonometric identities and equations Compound angles. Section 3: Areas and volumes Areas of common shapes The circle and its properties Volumes and surface areas of common solids Irregular areas and volumes and mean values of waveforms. Section 4: Graphs Straight line graphs Reduction of non-linear laws to linear form Graphs with logarithmic scales Graphical solution of equations Functions and their curves. Section 5: Complex numbers Complex numbers De Moivre’s theorem. Section 6: Vectors Vectors Methods of adding alternating waveforms. Section 7: Differential calculus Introduction to differentiation Methods of differentiation Some applications of differentiation Solving equations by Newton's methods Maclaurin’s series Differentiation of parametric equations Differentiation of implicit functions Logarithmic differentiation. Section 8: Integral calculus Standard integration Integration using algebraic substitutions Integration using trigonometric substitutions Integration using partial fractions The t = tan θ/2 substitution Integration by parts Numerical integration Areas under and between curves Mean and root mean square values Volumes and solids of revolution Centroids of simple shapes Second moments of area. Section 9: Differential equations Introduction to differential equations. Section 10: Further number and algebra Boolean algebra and logic circuits The theory of matrices and determinants The solution of simultaneous equations by matrices and determinants. Section 11: Statistics Presentation of statistical data Mean, median, mode and standard deviation Probability The binomial and Poisson distribution The normal distribution Linear correlation Linear regression Sampling and estimation theories List of essential formulae Answers to Practice Exercises
Now in its ninth edition, Bird’s Engineering Mathematics has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams. Mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner, supported by practical engineering examples and applications to ensure that readers can relate theory to practice. Some 1,300 engineering situations/problems have been ‘flagged-up’ to help demonstrate that engineering cannot be fully understood without a good knowledge of mathematics. The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this a great text for a range of level 2 and 3 engineering courses – such as for aeronautical, construction, electrical, electronic, mechanical, manufacturing engineering and vehicle technology – including for BTEC First, National and Diploma syllabuses, City & Guilds Technician Certificate and Diploma syllabuses, and even for GCSE and A-level revision.
