Item description from seller

In excellent condition, No writing or highlighting, book is crisp and clean. inquire for photos or more details. 100% satisfaction guarantee. --- 479 pages. Larry C. Andrews presents the special functions most often met in engineering in twelve chapters. The book opens with a groundwork chapter on infinite series, Fourier series, improper integrals, asymptotic formulas and infinite products. It then covers the gamma, beta, incomplete gamma, digamma and polygamma functions, with a section on fractional-order derivatives. Next come the error function, Fresnel integrals, the exponential, sine and cosine integrals and elliptic integrals, applied to probability, heat conduction in solids and vibrating beams. Later chapters treat Legendre and other orthogonal polynomials, and Bessel functions of several kinds with a separate chapter of applications. The hypergeometric function follows, then the confluent hypergeometric functions, including the Hermite, Laguerre and Whittaker functions. The generalized functions pFq and the Meijer G and MacRobert E functions come next. A final chapter applies these functions to statistical communication theory, nonlinear devices and fluid mechanics. There are exercises with selected answers, a bibliography and a list of special function formulas.…
