Continuing its rich tradition of engaging students and demonstrating how mathematics applies to various fields of study, the new edition of this text is packed with real data and real-life applications to business, economics, social and life sciences. Users continually praise Sullivan and Mizrahi for their attention to conceptual development, well-graded and applied examples and exercise sets that include CPA, CMA, and Actuarial exam questions. The new Eighth Edition also features a new full col...

Discrete Mathematics for Computer Science: An Example-Based Introduction is intended for a first- or second-year discrete mathematics course for computer science majors. It covers many important mathematical topics essential for future computer science majors, such as algorithms, number representations, logic, set theory, Boolean algebra, functions, combinatorics, algorithmic complexity, graphs, and trees. Features Designed to be especially useful for courses at the community-college level...

Non-linear Finite Element Analysis of Solids and Structures Volume 1 : Essentials M.A. Crisfield Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London, UK Taking an engineering rather than a mathematical bias, this comprehensive book details the fundamentals of non-linear finite element analysis. The author explains how non-linear techniques can be used to solve practical problems. The main ideas of geometric non-linearity, continuum mechanics, plasticity, element technology and stability...

This volume contains selected refereed papers based on lectures presented at the "Integers Conference 2011", an international conference in combinatorial number theory that was held in Carrollton, Georgia, United States in October 2011. This was the fifth Integers Conference, held bi-annually since 2003. It featured plenary lectures presented by Ken Ono, Carla Savage, Laszlo Szekely, Frank Thorne, and Julia Wolf, along with sixty other research talks. This volume consists of ten refereed artic...

Introduction to Recognition and Deciphering of Patterns is meant to acquaint STEM and non-STEM students with different patterns, as well as to where and when specific patterns arise. In addition, the book teaches students how to recognize patterns and distinguish the similarities and differences between them. Patterns, such as weather patterns, traffic patterns, behavioral patterns, geometric patterns, linguistic patterns, structural patterns, digital patterns, and the like, emerge on an everyd...

Illustrates the utility of mathematical concepts in analysing and solving problems. Also offers technology integration with Excel applications for istructors who wish to bring technology into the course.

This package consists of the textbook plus an access kit for MyMathLab/MyStatLab. This accessible text is designed to help readers help themselves to excel. The content is organized into two parts: (1) A Library of Elementary Functions (Chapters 1-2) and (2) Finite Mathematics (Chapters 3-11). The book's overall approach, refined by the authors' experience with large sections of college freshmen, addresses the challenges of teaching and learning when readers' prerequisite knowledge varies grea...

A systematic introduction to the theories and formulations of the explicit finite element method As numerical technology continues to grow and evolve with industrial applications, understanding the explicit finite element method has become increasingly important, particularly in the areas of crashworthiness, metal forming, and impact engineering. Introduction to the Explicit Finite Element Method for Nonlinear Transient Dynamics is the first book to address specifically what is now accepted as t...
