Xue D., Chen Y. Solving Applied Mathematical Problems with MatLAB

Chapman and Hall / CRC, 2008. 448 p. ISBN:1420082507This textbook presents a variety of applied mathematics topics in science and engineering with an emphasis on problem solving techniques using MatLAB. The authors provide a general overview of the MatLAB language and its graphics abilities before delving into problem solving, making the book useful for readers without prior MatLAB experience. They explain how to generate code suitable for various applications so that readers can apply the techniques to problems not covered in the book. Examples, figures, and MatLAB scripts enable readers with basic mathematics knowledge to solve various applied math problems in their fields while avoiding unnecessary technical details.
