Written through the eyes of an engineer, this book offers readers an introduction to the field that looks at how engineers apply science and technology to solve problems facing society. It first focuses on how engineers represent and solve engineering problems and then describes some of the different kinds of mathematical models that are used.
Divided into three innovative modules, this book will help readers gain a solid foundation in the modeling, design, and control of systems composed of interacting parts.
The first module introduces them to what engineers do and what engineering actually involves.
The next module develops their fundamental problem-solving skills while examining areas such as modeling of dynamic systems, conservation principles, and control theory.
The final module shows them how to apply the material in the real world.
