eBook [PDF] Applied Engineering Mathematics By Brian Vick
Applied Engineering Mathematics is a prominent textbook written by Brian Vick, an associate professor of mechanical engineering at Virginia Tech. Designed primarily for undergraduate engineering students in their second through fourth years, the book shifts away from rigid procedural derivations to focus on intuitive, visual learning.
Key Characteristics & Pedagogical Approach
• Visual Emphasis: Avoids overly dense mathematical proofs and derivations, utilizing visual illustrations to explain complex mathematical concepts.
• Software Integration: Blends theoretical analysis with practical applications using programming languages like Mathematica and MATLAB.
• Interactive Tools: Features a companion eResource website providing dynamic, interactive computational codes to help students explore mathematical models independently.
• Interwoven Theory: Blends engineering physics, science application, and critical thinking rather than teaching mathematics in complete isolation.
Target Topics covered
The textbook draws heavily from the author's extensive research and teaching background at Virginia Tech, integrating mathematical methods necessary to solve real-world problems in major core subjects:
• Heat transfer and thermodynamics
• System dynamics and wave mechanics
• Numerical analysis and computer programming
• Parameter estimation and nonlinear dynamics
The book is published by Routledge (CRC Press)
