GNVQ 2. Where at all possible the problems mirror practical situations found in engineering and science. At regular intervals throughout the text are 15 Assignments to check understanding.

For example, Assignment 1 covers material contained in chapters 1 and 2, Assignment 2 covers the material contained in chapters 3 and 4, and so on.

These Assignments do not have answers given since it is envisaged that lecturers could set the Assignments for students to attempt as part of their course structure. At the end of the book a list of relevant formulae contained within the text is included for convenience of reference.

GNVQ 3 in Engineering. Each topic considered in the text is presented in a way that assumes in the reader little previous knowledge of that topic. All students that require a fundamental knowledge of mathematics for engineering will find this book essential reading. Level 3 students will also find this text to be a useful resource for getting to grips with essential mathematics concepts, because the compulsory topics in BTEC National and A Level Engineering courses are also addressed.

Mathematical theories are explained in a straightforward manner, supported by practical engineering examples and applications to ensure that readers can relate theory to practice. Its companion website provides extra materials for students and lecturers, including full solutions for all 1, further questions, lists of essential formulae, multiple choice tests, and illustrations, as well as full solutions to revision tests for course instructors.

Author : J. Unlike most engineering maths texts, this book does not assume a firm grasp of GCSE maths, yet unlike low-level general maths texts the content is tailored for the needs of engineers. The result is a unique text written for engineering students, but which takes a starting point below GCSE level. The textbook is therefore ideal for students of a wide range of abilities, and especially for those who find the theoretical side of mathematics difficult.

John Bird's approach is based on numerous worked examples, supported by worked problems and followed by further problems. Level 3 students who struggle with their maths will also find this book particularly useful. Full worked solutions are available to lecturers only as a free download from the Newnes website: www. Theory is kept to a minimum, with the emphasis firmly placed on problem-solving skills, making this a thoroughly practical introduction to the basic mathematics engineering that students need to master.

The extensive and thorough topic coverage makes this an ideal introductory textbook for vocational engineering courses, including the BTEC National Specifications. Now in its sixth edition, Basic Engineering Mathematics has helped thousands of students to succeed in their exams. The new edition includes a section at the start of each chapter to explain why the content is important and how it relates to real life.
