Numerical Methods for Chemical Engineering: Applications in MATLAB
Book Description
Suitable for a first-year graduate course, this textbook unites the applications of numerical mathematics and scientific computing to the practice of chemical engineering. Written in an academic style, the book describes basic linear and nonlinear algebraic systems through to stochastic methods, Bayesian statistics, and parameter estimation. These subjects are developed at a mathematics level suitable for graduate engineering study without the complete story of theoretical mathematical detail. The implementation of numerical methods in MATLAB is integrated within each chapter, and numerous examples in chemical engineering are provided, with a library of related MATLAB programs. This book will give the graduate student essential tools required by industry and research. Supplementary material includes solutions to homework problems set in the text, MATLAB programs and tutorials, lecture slides, and complicated derivations for the more advanced reader. These are available online at www.cambridge.org/9780521859714.
