Mathematics for Engineering

by W. Bolton

Published 10 July 1995
This work covers the mandatory unit "Mathematics for Engineering" at the advanced level of GNVQ, although the content is applicable to a range of courses. This unit contains a very strong emphasis on the need for students to demonstrate their abilities to use mathematics in engineering. To this end frequent engineering examples and problems occur throughout this applied and practical text.

The GNVQ optional unit, Engineering Instrumentation and Control, takes a different approach to the old BTEC units, Engineering Instrumentation and Control (for mechanical engineers) and Industrial Control and Instrumentation (for electrical/electronic engineers), by presenting an introduction to the topic for the whole range of engineering students, and by increasing the depth of coverage of control. An accessible and clearly written text is supported by plenty of illustrations and examples, and multiple choice questions to prepare students for the end of unit test.
