ADVANCED ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS, 8E is written specifically for students like you, who are primarily interested in how to effectively apply mathematical techniques to solve advanced engineering problems. Numerous examples include illustrations of mathematical techniques as well as applications. A "Math in Context" feature clearly demonstrates how the mathematical concepts and methods you are learning relate to current engineering problems. The book is organized into seven distinctive parts to provide precise focus on individual mathematical ideas and methods. A student solutions manual offers detailed solutions to half of the problems in the book for your use in checking your progress as well as study and review.

  • Detailed examples highlight both mathematical ideas and their applications. Valuable examples throughout develop and emphasize mathematical concepts as well as practical engineering uses.
  • A guide to post-calculus notation assists students. This helpful guide provides support for your students as they reference new terms and symbols.
  • The book’s seven-part organization best fits most course organizations. Seven distinctive parts clearly focus and differentiate the mathematical ideas and methods while giving you the flexibility to select the sections best suited for your course and student needs.
  • An instructor’s solutions manual offers complete solutions. You will find detailed solutions to virtually all problems in the book to save you time and effort.
  • Two additional web chapters detail statistics and probability. These chapters are conveniently posted on the book’s website and include both problems and solutions.
  • Tables of transforms provide quick reference. Your students will find tables for Fourier, Laplace, Fourier cosine and sine for use in solving problems within the book.
  • Detailed examples illustrate the use of notation and the theory. The numerous examples clarify notation, theory, and the underlying computations, followed by the numerical calculations themselves.
  • Student solutions manual contains worked-out solutions to half of the text problems. These solutions are specifically developed to assist your students in truly understanding the ideas involved, rather than simply listing the mechanical steps.
