General Linear Least-Squares and Non-Linear Regression 15. Polynomial Interpolation 16. Splines and Piecewise Interpolation Part Five Integration and Differentiation 17. Numerical Integration Formulas 18. Numerical Integration of Functions 19. Numerical Differentiation Part Six Ordinary Differential Equations 20. Initial-Value Problems 21. Adaptive Methods and Stiff Systems 22. Boundary-Value Problems Appendix A: Eigenvalues Appendix B: MATLAB Built-in Functions Appendix C: MATLAB M-File Functions Bibliography Index
Summary: Applied Numerical Methods with MATLAB for Engineering and Science is the newest book by best-selling author Steve Chapra. The new text uses MATLAB as the primary computing environment and focuses on applications. Theory is included only when it has direct use to the student; i.e., when theory informs the concepts. Information relating to the limitations of methods and to choosing among different methods is stressed throughout the book. The book includes algorithms, but the algorithms will be presented as MATLAB M-Files, rather than pseudocode. Chapra's familiar instructor- and student-friendly style and pedagogical features are hallmarks of this highly anticipated new text.
