Maplesoft Releases Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple; Definitive Interactive E-Book Greatly Enhances Advanced Engineering Mathematics Series for Engineering Professionals, Students and Instructors.


WATERLOO, Canada -- Maplesoft(TM), the leading provider of high-performance software tools for engineering, science and mathematics, announced today the availability of Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple(TM), the definitive reference software and textbook for engineering mathematics. Advanced Engineering Mathematics is a classic series featuring several books from multiple publishers all under the same title. This Maplesoft release is the first electronic, interactive version.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple, an essential resource for every engineering professional, student and instructor, provides complete coverage of all major areas of engineering mathematics. The author, Dr. Robert J. Lopez, is a renowned professor and Maple expert, who pioneered the instructional use of Maple for general and engineering mathematics.

"An e-book for Advanced Engineering Mathematics is a new paradigm New Paradigm

In the investing world, a totally new way of doing things that has a huge effect on business.

Notes:
The word "paradigm" is defined as a pattern or model, and it has been used in science to refer to a theoretical framework.
 for learning and using engineering math," said Dr. Lopez, who also authored the print version published by Addison-Wesley in 2001. "The combination of the content and an interactive tool like Maple makes this much more effective than print alone. The reader can interact with the mathematics and graphs in the book, exploring parameters, running what-if scenarios, and modifying examples to solve specific problems. Advanced Engineering Mathematics is one of the most important titles in engineering and is an essential part of every engineer's toolset."

Dr. Tom Lee, Vice President of Market Development for Maplesoft, says, "Maplesoft is committed to offering the core tools and the content to make math more useful and accessible to all engineers. Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple provides the same depth and breadth as the print version, but is more useful and convenient as it provides a unique combination of reference information and live computation. It is the ideal tool for engineers and students to look up essential mathematical techniques, perform calculations, and learn topics."

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple was designed to benefit engineering professionals, students and instructors. The e-book provides professionals with a handy, easy-to-use reference text. Its logical topic breakdown allows the reader to focus on concepts of interest, and the examples can be easily modified to help solve similar problems. With the e-book's clear exposition, it also serves as a topic refresher for infrequently used subject areas.

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple is the essential companion for mathematics courses, including ODEs, PDEs, Vector Calculus Vector calculus (also called vector analysis) is a field of mathematics concerned with multivariate real analysis of vectors in a metric space with two or more dimensions (some results can only be applied to three dimensions[1]). , Matrix Algebra Noun 1. matrix algebra - the part of algebra that deals with the theory of matrices
diagonalisation, diagonalization - changing a square matrix to diagonal form (with all non-zero elements on the principal diagonal); "the diagonalization of a normal matrix by a
, Complex Variables, Numerical Methods and the Calculus of Variations calculus of variations, branch of mathematics concerned with finding maximum or minimum conditions for a relationship between two or more variables that depends not only on the variables themselves, as in the ordinary calculus, but also on an additional arbitrary . With its explanations, modifiable examples, and exercises, this single e-book helps students learn and solve problems quickly, and serves as a reference after finishing the courses. A Solution Manual that contains full solutions to many exercises in the e-book is also available.

The e-book was created and used in the author's classes, so its materials have been class-tested at the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology (abbreviated RHIT), formerly Rose Polytechnic Institute, is a small, private, non-sectarian college specializing in teaching engineering, mathematics, and science. RHIT is highly regarded for its undergraduate engineering program. . An Instructor Manual with solutions to all exercises is also available. Instructors interested in adopting the textbook should contact Maplesoft.

Key Features

Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple features nine major subject areas, 48 chapters and 273 section topics. The e-book includes modifiable examples and interactive graphs throughout. The text provides a logical arrangement of topics with many short self-contained sections for easy, direct access. Concepts are stated and explained clearly before, rather than after, the mechanical calculation techniques are introduced, resulting in quicker comprehension of the important ideas. It includes many real-world applications of interest to engineers selected from a wide spectrum of physical and mathematical disciplines. The e-book features more than 7000 exercises, including section exercises and chapter review questions. Answers are provided to selected exercises.
