Engineering Mathematics

Product Information

He is a chartered engineer, a chartered mathematician, a chartered scientist and a Fellow of three professional institutions, and is currently lecturing at the Defence School of Marine and Air Engineering in the Defence College of Technical Training at HMS Sultan, Gosport, Hampshire, UK. A mapping grid is included showing precisely which topics are required for the learning outcomes of each unit. The coverage has been carefully matched to recent course specifications including AVCE and the new BTEC 850 worked examples, 1500 problems (answers provided), 226 multiple choice questions, and 15 assessment papers.

A wide range of courses have an intake that requires a basic, easy introduction to the key maths topics for engineering - Basic Engineering Mathematics is designed to fulfil that need. Some terminology that may be used in this description includes: Poor A book with significant wear and faults. The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal text for a range of Level 2 and 3 engineering courses. He has over 45 years' experience of successfully teaching, lecturing, instructing, training, educating and planning trainee engineers study programmes.Some 1,000 engineering situations/problems have been ‘flagged-up’ to help demonstrate that engineering cannot be fully understood without a good knowledge of mathematics. Now in its eighth edition, Bird’s Basic Engineering Mathematics has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams.

K. The school, which serves the Royal Navy, is one of Europe s largest engineering training establishments. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce.This has been proved by the thousands of students guided to exam success by previous editions of this book and the highly popular companion title Engineering Mathematics. John Bird is currently a Senior Instructional Officer at the School of Marine and Air Engineering at H. The content has been designed to match current level 2 courses, including Intermediate GNVQ and the new specifications for BTEC First.

This extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal book for a range of university degree modules, foundation degrees, and HNC/D units. Basic mathematical theories are explained in the simplest of terms, supported by practical engineering examples and applications from a wide variety of engineering disciplines, to ensure the reader can relate the theory to actual engineering 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 result is a unique text written for engineering students, but which takes a starting point below GCSE level. More recently, he has combined freelance lecturing at the University of Portsmouth with examiner responsibilities for Advanced Mathematics with City and Guilds, and examining for the International Baccalaureate Organisation. I highly recommend this book for students and math enthusiast such as myself to acquire a firm understanding of mathematics from a to z. John Bird's approach is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked through at the student's own pace.

Now in its eighth edition, Bird's Basic Engineering Mathematics has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams.

Higher Engineering Mathematics has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams by developing problem-solving skills, It is supported by over 600 practical engineering examples and applications which relate theory to practice. Introductory-level algebra: To enable students to revise basic algebra needed for engineering courses - available at http://books. John Bird's approach, based on numerous worked examples supported by problems, is ideal for students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, and can be worked though at the student's own pace. The third edition has been reorganised to present a logical topic progression through the book rather than following the structure of a particular syllabus.
