Publisher's Synopsis
This book uses worked examples to showcase several mathematical methods that are essential to solving real-world process engineering problems. The third edition includes additional examples related to process control, Bessel Functions, and contemporary areas such as drug delivery. The author inserts more depth on specific applications such as nonhomogeneous cases of separation of variables, adds a section on special types of matrices such as upper- and lower-triangular matrices, incorporates examples related to biomedical engineering applications, and expands the problem sets of numerous chapters.
