Bring mathematical principles to bear on engineering problems with this updated text
The evolution of industrial processes has resulted in greater emphasis upon analytical and numerical problem solving. Process improvement through experimentation is impractical and consequently engineers must rely upon computational and technical analysis. Furthermore, the ease with which time-series data can be collected and processed has made harmonic signal interpretation routine. Thus, the ability of engineers to analyze, model, compute, and interpret process phenomena is crucial to professional practice.
Problem Solving in Engineering meets these needs with a foundational introduction to mathematical techniques in applied sciences and engineering. Incorporating examples from a range of scientific fields, it communicates principles that can be adapted to many hardware-software combinations. Now fully updated to reflect the latest research and applications, it remains an essential tool for engineers and applied scientists everywhere.
Readers of the second edition will also find:
- Extensive time devoted to problem formulation
- Detailed discussion of integro-differential equations and the processing and analysis of time-series data
- The use of vorticity transport for the solution of momentum, heat, and mass transfer problems in two dimensions
- Examples and problems drawn from aviation, telegraphy, structural failures, railroad operation, chemical processes, automatic process control, seismology, neutron diffusion, gravitation, and quantum theory
- Many additional narrative-type exercises written to appeal to students who find problems in context better suited to their learning style
- Solutions manual available for qualified instructors
Problem Solving in Engineering is ideal for advanced undergraduate, graduate students, and technical professionals in the physical sciences, specifically chemical, civil, biochemical, electrical, and mechanical engineering, as well as physics, chemistry, and biology.

About the Author
Larry A. Glasgow began his teaching career at Kansas State University in 1978 and taught nearly all of the classes the department of chemical engineering offers, earning numerous teaching awards throughout his 38-year long career before retiring in 2016. Glasgow’s research areas of focus concern the interaction of turbulence with fluid-borne entities in multi-phase processes, including flocculation, aggregate breakage and aggregate deformation. In addition, he has investigated bubble formation, coalescence and breakage in aerated reactors, the effects of energetic interfacial phenomena upon cells in culture, and the impulsive distribution of small particles in air-filled chambers. Glasgow has also authored multiple publications, as well as two books: Transport Phenomena: An Introduction to Advanced Topics (2010), and Applied Mathematics for Science and Engineering (2014).

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
