Computing and Simulation for Engineers

Book excerpt: This book presents the reader with comprehensive insight into various kinds of mathematical modeling and numerical computation for problems arising in several branches of engineering, such as mechanical engineering, computer science engineering, electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, and civil engineering. The book: • Discusses topics related to clean and green energy production and storage • Bridges the gap between core theory and costly industrial experiments • Covers advanced biomechanics and nanodrug delivery topics • Explores diversified applications of mathematical techniques to solve practical engineering problems The text in this book emphasizes mathematical treatment of soft computing, image and signal processing, fluid flows in various geometries, biomechanics, biological modeling, a mathematical description of the solar cell, analytical and numerical treatment of problems in fracture mechanics, and antenna design modeling. It also discusses the numerical computations of biomechanics problems and problems arising in cryptography. The text further covers optimization techniques that are useful for real-world problems. This material is primarily written for graduate students and academic researchers in a number of engineering fields, including electrical, electronics and communication, industrial, manufacturing, mechanical, computer science, and mathematics.
