Description for Numerical Methods with Chemical Engineering Applications
Hardcover. This undergraduate textbook integrates the teaching of numerical methods and programming with problems from core chemical engineering subjects. Series: Cambridge Series in Chemical Engineering. Num Pages: 511 pages, 135 b/w illus. 12 tables. BIC Classification: TDCB. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 246 x 189 x 28. Weight in Grams: 1270.
Designed primarily for undergraduates, but also graduates and practitioners, this textbook integrates numerical methods and programming with applications from chemical engineering. Combining mathematical rigor with an informal writing style, it thoroughly introduces the theory underlying numerical methods, its translation into MATLAB programs, and its use for solving realistic problems. Specific topics covered include accuracy, convergence and numerical stability, as well as stiffness and ill-conditioning. MATLAB codes are developed from scratch, and their implementation is explained in detail, all while assuming limited programming knowledge. All scripts employed are downloadable, and built-in MATLAB functions are discussed and contextualised. Numerous examples and homework ... Read more

Reviews for Numerical Methods with Chemical Engineering Applications
'Dorfman and Daoutidis's new book is a welcome addition to the undergraduate chemical engineering textbook literature. It provides a very attractive combination of programming, applied mathematics and chemical engineering applications, and is written in an accessible style. The incorporation of example MATLAB codes will be very helpful to students.' Michael D. Graham, University of Wisconsin, Madison
