Introductory Mathematics for Engineering Applications Preliminary Edition Kuldip S. Rattan, Nathan Klingbeil
Rattan’s Introductory Mathematics for Engineering Applications is designed is to improve student retention, motivation and success through applicationdriven, just-in-time engineering math instruction. It is intended to be taught by engineering faculty, not math faculty, so the emphasis is on using math to solve engineering problems, not on derivations and theory. The book is a product of four NSF grants to develop and disseminate a new approach to engineering mathematics education. The authors have developed a course that does just this, and have recruited faculty at more than two dozen institutions to pilot aspects of this course in their own curricula. This approach covers only the salient math topics actually used in core engineering courses, including physics, statics, dynamics, electric circuits and computer programming. More importantly, the course replaces traditional math prerequisites for the above core courses, so that students can advance in the engineering curriculum without first completing the required calculus sequence. The result has shifted the traditional emphasis on math prerequisite requirements to an emphasis on engineering motivation for math, and has had an overwhelming impact on engineering student retention.
Brief Table of Contents Straight Lines in Engineering; Quadratic Equations in Engineering; Trigonometry in Engineering; Two-Dimensional Vectors in Engineering; Complex Numbers in Engineering; Sinusoids in Engineering; Systems of Equations in Engineering; Derivatives in Engineering; Integration in Engineering; Differential Equations in Engineering 978-1-118-11409-4 388pp 2011 Paper
Key Features:
• Ideally, this text will serve as a a primary text for a first-year engineering math course, which would allow students to advance through the first two years of their academic program without first completing the required calculus sequence.
• This course doesn’t replace calculus. It simply allows students to advance
through introductory engineering courses while they gain the maturity and motivation to succeed in calculus at a slower pace.

Engineering Design Graphics 2nd Edition James Leake
COMING SOON
Providing a clear, concise treatment of the essential topics addressed in a modern engineering design graphics course, this text concentrates on teaching hand-drawing as a skill and a vital component of the design process. Unlike texts that reduce drawing to a computer-based task, Leake and Borgerson’s book emphasizes the role of sketching in conceptualizing a design solution. This reflects the growing trend in engineering graphics courses, in which handdrawing is used for developing a design and computer tools are used for the final iterations. By providing a brief, skills-based approach, this reasonably priced volume - which includes several hundred sketching problems - is well positioned to offer a compelling alternative to the large volumes by Giesecke and Bertoline. Alongside its coverage of hand-drawing skills, this text also provides a chapter on computer-aided design software, with an emphasis on parametric solid

Systems Analysis and Design with UML 4th Edition Alan Dennis, Barbara Haley Wixom, David Tegarden
You can’t truly understand Systems Analysis and Design by only reading about it; you have to do it. In Systems Analysis and Design, 4th Edition, Dennis, Wixom, and Tegarden offer a hands-on approach to actually doing SAD. Building on their experience as professional systems analysts and award-winning teachers, these three authors capture the experience of actually developing and analyzing systems. They focus on the core set of skills that all analysts must possess--from gathering requirements and modeling business needs, to creating blueprints for how the system should be built.
Key Features:
• Written in UML: The text takes a contemporary, object-oriented approach using UML.
• Focus on doing SAD: The text builds on the applied approach of Dennis • Rich examples of both success and failure: Concepts in Action boxes
describe how real companies succeeded and failed in performing the activities in the chapters.
• Project approach: Each chapter focuses on a different step in the Systems
Development Life Cycle (SDLC) process. Topics are presented in the order in which they are encountered in a typical project.
