The goal of this text is to introduce a general problem-solving approach for the beginning engineering student.  Thus, Introduction to Analysis  focuses on how to solve (any) kind of engineering analytical problem in a logical and systematic way. The book helps to prepare the students for such analytically oriented courses as statics, strength of materials, electrical circuits, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, etc. 
 

  • Introduces students to analysis methodology that they will utilize in the engineering disciplines they pursue.
    • The first three chapters of the book introduce the problem solving method.
    • The remaining chapters place this method in context so students can practice the methodology. 
  • Mathematics is included, but kept at a level appropriate for the freshman engineering student.
  • Updates to the third edition include: 
    • Numerous end-of-chapter problems were modified and/or added. 
    • Updated and rewritten content to provide the student with the latest information and to improve the readability of the text. 
  • Part of Prentice Hall's ESource Program:
    • ESource enables you to choose individual chapters from published books in the Prentice Hall ESource Series. The content available in this online book-building system covers topics in engineering problem-solving and design, graphics, and computer applications. Using this program, you can create a unique text for your introduction to engineering course that exactly matches your content requirements and teaching approach.  www.prenhall.com/esource

  • Computer tools (MATLAB, MathCAD) will be incorporated to the general analysis procedure.
  • More in-depth explanations of the "solution check" and "discussion" steps of the analysis procedure (with examples.)
  • 60-70% revised end of chapter problems
