"Computational Methods in Engineering" brings to light the numerous uses of numerical methods in engineering. It clearly explains the application of these methods mathematically and practically, emphasizing programming aspects when appropriate. By approaching the cross-disciplinary topic of numerical methods with a flexible approach, "Computational Methods in Engineering" encourages a well-rounded understanding of the subject.

This book's teaching goes beyond the text detailed exercises (with solutions), real examples of numerical methods in real engineering practices, flowcharts, and MATLAB codes all help you learn the methods directly in the medium that suits you best.
Balanced discussion of mathematical principles and engineering applicationsDetailed step-by-step exercises and practical engineering examples to help engineering students and other readers fully grasp the concepts Concepts are explained through flowcharts and simple MATLAB codes to help you develop additional programming skills "

The book covers various topics of heat transfer. It explains and analyzes several techniques and modes of heat transfer such as conduction in stationary media, convection in moving media and also by radiation. It is primarily a text book useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students. The book should also interest practicing engineers who wish to refresh their knowledge in the field. The book presents the various topics in a systematic way starting from first principles. The topics are developed to a fairly advanced level towards the end of each chapter. Several worked examples illustrate the engineering applications of the basic modeling tools developed in the text. The exercises at the end of the book are arranged chapter wise and challenge the reader to tackle typical real-life problems in heat transfer. This book will be of potential use for students of mechanical engineering, chemical engineering and metallurgy in most engineering colleges.

< p=""> This book focuses both on the basics and more complex topics in mechanical measurements such as measurement errors & statistical analysis of data, regression analysis, heat flux, measurement of pressure, and radiation properties of surfaces. End of chapter problems, solved illustrations, and exercise problems are presented throughout the book to augment learning. It is a useful reference for students in both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. ^

The first edition of this book was co-published by Ane Books India, and CRC Press in 2008. This second edition is an enlarged version of the web course developed by the author at IIT Madras, and also a modified and augmented version of the earlier book. Major additions/modifications presented are in the treatment of errors in measurement, temperature measurement, measurement of thermo-physical properties, and data manipulation. Many new worked examples have been introduced in this new and updated second edition.

A comprehensive textbook on mechanical measurement, this book covers the material in five modules. Module I deals with the basics of measurements without reference to any particular field and hence is to be dealt with at the beginning. Chapters 4, 6 and 13 deal with basic quantities that interest all engineers and should be included in any course on "a oeMechanical Measurementsa ." Parts of other chapters may be included to suit the requirements of a particular class. The book may also be useful to practicing engineers who want to refresh their knowledge of measurements. The material of the book is based on the notes prepared for a course taught by the author at IIT Madras for more than 20 years.
