The new and revised version of this comprehensive pocket reference
guide is ideal for anyone who deals with physics, chemistry,
mathematics, finance, and computer systems and needs to review or
quickly refresh their memory of what they studied in school. It
covers the fundamentals of arithmetic, algebra, geometry,
trigonometry, and analytical geometry, and statistics, and presents
the application of differential equations and integral calculus. It
reveals the comparative advantages of binomial distribution,
standard distribution, Poisson distribution, and normal
distribution, and includes most used definitions and formulas of
kinematics, dynamics, statics, mechanics of fluids, thermal
variable of state, thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism,
light, and atomic and nuclear physics. It also presents
applications and solutions to problems concerning simple interest,
compound interest, effective rate, annuity, amortization of loans,
and sinking fund payments. Features A quick reference for
engineers, technicians, toolmakers, machinists, students, and
teachers. Includes more than 1,300 formulas, definitions, and
figures used in mathematics and physics, plus complete coverage of
S.I., metric, and U.S. customary units. New to this revised edition
are sections on arithmetic, mathematical fundamentals of computer
science, units of measure in precious metals, and more. Key topics
have been clarified, and more than 150 line illustrations have been
improved. The index has been expanded to help guide readers through
this information-packed reference. Vukota Boljanovic, Ph.D., has
more than 40 year of experience in applied engineering in the
aircraft and automotive industries as well as in education. He
received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and
worked in Europe for many years in both academia and industry,
including as a Professor of Aerospace Engineering and later as Vice
President for Research and Development for a major aircraft
company. He has performed extensive research in development and
manufacturing engineering, including the impact of design
modification on tools, dies, and processes selection, aircraft
assembly, and inspection. He also spent five years working in the
American automotive industry. The author of multiple books and
numerous technical papers, Boljanovic has been widely recognized by
both academia and industry for his contributions to manufacturing
processes. Preface; List of Greek Letters;Part I, Units:
