Loney (chemical engineering, New Jersey Institute of Technology) focuses on two important aspects of the application of mathematics to chemical engineering, namely setting up a mathematical model
Note: The term model has a different meaning in model theory, a branch of mathematical logic. An artifact which is used to illustrate a mathematical idea is also called a mathematical model and this usage is the reverse of the sense explained below.
 and verifying the model with experimental or independently derived data. Using step-by-step examples he covers differential equations, first-order ordinary differential equations, linear second-order and systems of first-order differential equations, Sturm-Liouville problems, Fourier series Fourier series

In mathematics, an infinite series used to solve special types of differential equations. It consists of an infinite sum of sines and cosines, and because it is periodic (i.e.
 and integrals, partial differential equations, applications of partial differential equations in chemical engineering, dimensional analysis and scaling of boundary value problems, selected numerical methods and available software packages. Each chapter includes problems and references, and an appendix includes a numerical method of lines The method of lines (MOL, NMOL, NUMOL) ( Schiesser, 1991; Hamdi, et al., 2007; ) is a technique for solving partial differential equations (PDEs) where all but one dimension is discretized.  example using MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) A programming language for technical computing from The MathWorks, Natick, MA (www.mathworks.com). Used for a wide variety of scientific and engineering calculations, especially for automatic control and signal processing, MATLAB runs on Windows, Mac and . For this edition Loney has added information on systems of first-order differential equations and the numerical method of lines.
