Overview

Leverage the power of MATLAB 6 in all your technical computation and measurement applications

Now, there is a complete introduction to numerical methods and visualization with the latest, most powerful version of MATLAB, Version 6.0. Dr. Shoichiro Nakamura introduces the skills and knowledge needed to solve numerical equations with MATLAB, understand the computational results, and present them graphically.

This book brings together all four cornerstones of numerical analysis with MATLAB: the fundamental techniques of MATLAB programming; the mathematical basis of numerical methods; the application of numerical analysis to engineering, scientific, and mathematical problems; and the creation of scientific graphics. Coverage includes:

  • Complete introductory tutorials for both MATLAB 6.0 programming and professional-quality 3D graphics
  • Linear algebra applications: matrices, vectors, Gauss elimination, Gauss-Jordan elimination, LU decomposition, and more
  • Polynomials and interpolation, including interpolation with Chebyshev points; cubic hermite, 2D and transfinite interpolation; and M-files
  • Numerical integration, differentiation, and roots of nonlinear equations
  • Advanced techniques, including curve fitting, spline functions, and boundary value problems

Whether you are a student, engineer, scientist, researcher, or economic analyst, MATLAB 6 offers you unprecedented power for defining and solving problems. Put that power to work β€” with Numerical Analysis and Graphical Visualization with MATLAB, second edition.

Editorials

Booknews

A text for college students in engineering and science or handbook of MATLAB applications for professionals. It integrates four fundamental elements: programming in MATLAB; mathematical basics of numerical analysis; application of numerical methods to engineering, scientific, and mathematical problems; and scientific graphics with MATLAB. The first two chapters are comprehensive tutorials of MATLAB commands and graphic tools, while Chapters 3 through 11 cover numerical methods and their implementations with MATLAB. A diskette is available to purchasers free from MathWorks. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
