Overview

This book presents the full range of computational science and engineering -- the equations, numerical methods, and algorithms with MATLAB® codes. The author has taught this material to thousands of engineers and scientists. The book is solution-based and not formula-based: it covers applied linear algebra and fast solvers, differential equations with finite differences and finite elements, Fourier analysis, optimization, and more. Contents Chapter 1: Applied Linear Algebra; Chapter 2: A Framework for Applied Mathematics; Chapter 3: Boundary Value Problems; Chapter 4: Fourier Series and Integrals; Chapter 5: Analytic Functions; Chapter 6: Initial Value Problems; Chapter 7: Solving Large Systems; Chapter 8: Optimization and Minimum Principles.
