Description
MATLAB® is an ideal tool for technical analysis and calculation, and is renewed and refined regularly. Mastery of MATLAB® is increasingly important in the development of new products in mechanics, electronics chemistry, life sciences, and in modern industry as a whole. Materials sciences widely use computation and specialist programs, but at times need a universal tool for solving problems, such as MATLAB®. Technical Programming for Material Sciences and Engineering draws on examples from the field, to provide programming tools targeted at materials science. It enables non-programmers to master MATLAB® in order to solve problems in materials science. The book assumes only a modest mathematical background, and introduces programming and technical concepts logically. MATLAB® is then used as a tool for subsequent computer solutions, applying the program to mechanical and material science problems. This title offers materials scientists who are non-programming specialists, a coherent and focussed introduction to MATLAB®.
