The Pathways series assists students in achieving the National Certificate (Vocational) qualification. Pathways not only equips students with the required knowledge, understanding and practical skills, but also empowers them to apply this learning with confidence in the classroom and ultimately in the workplace. Each Pathways Student Book is clearly structured and easy to use. Each topic covers every Subject Outcome, Learning Outcome and Assessment Standard. Accessible, easy-to-understand language makes learning easy. Concepts are clearly defined. A glossary at the beginning of each topic clearly explains important words and terminology. Informative artwork supports the text. This Student Book is accompanied by a Lecturer’s Guide.

Integrates the traditional approach to differential equations with the modern systems and control theoretic approach to dynamic systems, emphasizing theoretical principles and classic models in a wide variety of areas. Provides a particularly comprehensive theoretical development that includes chapters on positive dynamic systems and optimal control theory. Contains numerous problems.

For courses in DC/AC circuits: conventional flow Introductory Circuit Analysis, the number one acclaimed text in the field for over three decades, is a clear and interesting information source on a complex topic. The 13th Edition contains updated insights on the highly technical subject, providing students with the most current information in circuit analysis. With updated software components and challenging review questions at the end of each chapter, this text engages students in a profound understanding of Circuit Analysis.

A thoroughly contemporary approach to teaching essential engineering graphics skills has made Fundamentals of Graphics Communication the leading textbook in introductory engineering graphics courses. The sixth edition continues to integrate design concepts and the use of CAD into its outstanding coverage of the basic visualization and sketching techniques that enable students to create and communicate graphic ideas effectively. As in past editions, the authors have included many examples of how graphics communication pertains to "real-world" engineering design, including current industry practices and breakthroughs. A website provides additional resources such as an image library, animations, and quizzes.

For senior or graduate-level students taking a first course in Control Theory (in departments of Mechanical, Electrical, Aerospace, and Chemical Engineering). A comprehensive, senior-level textbook for control engineering. Ogata's Modern Control Engineering, 5/e, offers the comprehensive coverage of continuous-time control systems that all senior students must have, including frequency response approach, root-locus approach, and state-space approach to analysis and design of control systems. The text provides a gradual development of control theory, shows how to solve all computational problems with MATLAB, and avoids highly mathematical arguments. A wealth of examples and worked problems are featured throughout the text. The new edition includes improved coverage of Root-Locus Analysis (Chapter 6) and Frequency-Response Analysis (Chapter 8). The author has also updated and revised many of the worked examples and end-of-chapter problems. This text is ideal for control systems engineers.

For introductory (senior) level and graduate level courses in electric drives/power electronics.

The book develops a systematic approach to motor drives. While the emphasis is on practice; extensive modeling, simulation and analysis is developed to assist readers in their understanding of the subject matter from fundamental principles. Also, each motor drive is illustrated with an industrial application in detail at the end of chapters to enable readers to relate theory to practice.
