Integrating the use of MATLAB in an innovative way, this text is designed for a one term course in introductory linear algebra. Although the book has been developed in the context of engineering and computer science, it should also be suitable for sciencestudents and other audiences.

Numerical Linear Algebra with Applications is designed for those who want to gain a practical knowledge of modern computational techniques for the numerical solution of linear algebra problems, using MATLAB as the vehicle for computation. The book contains all the material necessary for a first year graduate or advanced undergraduate course on numerical linear algebra with numerous applications to engineering and science. With a unified presentation of computation, basic algorithm analysis, and numerical methods to compute solutions, this book is ideal for solving real-world problems. The text consists of six introductory chapters that thoroughly provide the required background for those who have not taken a course in applied or theoretical linear algebra. It explains in great detail the algorithms necessary for the accurate computation of the solution to the most frequently occurring problems in numerical linear algebra. In addition to examples from engineering and science applications, proofs of required results are provided without leaving out critical details. The Preface suggests ways in which the book can be used with or without an intensive study of proofs. This book will be a useful reference for graduate or advanced undergraduate students in engineering, science, and mathematics. It will also appeal to professionals in engineering and science, such as practicing engineers who want to see how numerical linear algebra problems can be solved using a programming language such as MATLAB, MAPLE, or Mathematica. Six introductory chapters that thoroughly provide the required background for those who have not taken a course in applied or theoretical linear algebra Detailed explanations and examples A through discussion of the algorithms necessary for the accurate computation of the solution to the most frequently occurring problems in numerical linear algebra Examples from engineering and science applications

Linear Algebra for Engineers and Scientists Using Matlab®: International Edition, 1/e For a one-semester introductory course. Although the text has been developed in the context of engineering and physical science, it is also suitable for computer science students, math majors, and other quantitative fields. The most carefully written and clearest written text in linear algebra, motivates students in applied areas by placing linear algebra in context through current applications, anecdotes and historical references. Although it may be used without machine computation, the use of MATLAB is encouraged in a unique and innovative way. Maple 10, 1/e Maple 10 is a computer algebra system available from Maplesoft capable of performing mathematical calculations as well as programming, and 2-D and 3-D visualizations. Maple 10 offers full computing support for any activity involving mathematics, including numerical computation, symbolic computation, data visualization and technical authoring of mathematical documents. Students can enter and solve problems interactively, see what they have entered represented graphically, link their work to Excel spreadsheets, publish to the web in Maple applets and Java applets, and much more. The Maple 10 Student Edition CD is only £10 when bundled with any Pearson maths title. If the student were to purchase Maple through Maplesoft, the price would be £80

With the inclusion of applications of singular value decomposition (SVD) and principal component analysis (PCA) to image compression and data analysis, this edition provides a strong foundation of linear algebra needed for a higher study in signal processing. The use of MATLAB in the study of linear algebra for a variety of computational purposes and the programmes provided in this text are the most attractive features of this book which strikingly distinguishes it from the existing linear algebra books needed as pre-requisites for the study of engineering subjects. This book is highly suitable for undergraduate as well as postgraduate students of mathematics, statistics, and all engineering disciplines. The book will also be useful to Ph.D. students for relevant mathematical resources.NEW TO THIS EDITION The Third Edition of this book includes: • Simultaneous diagonalization of two diagonalizable matrices • Comprehensive exposition of SVD with applications in shear analysis in engineering • Polar Decomposition of a matrix • Numerical experimentation with a colour and a black-and-white image compression using MATLAB • PCA methods of data analysis and image compression with a list of MATLAB codes

This BookWare Companion book integrates analytical and computer solutions of problems that lead to understanding of advanced mathematical techniques with applications in engineering, physics and mathematics. Each chapter begins with a preview, and in addition to the text, contains numerous examples, exercises and problems, a bibliography, and answers to exercises. Major topics covered are vector and matrix algebra, differential equations, Fourier analysis, advanced calculus, and partial differential equations. MATLAB is the primary programming language utilized in the text; MATLAB scripts accompanying each chapter are provided on a bound-in disk. A Maple notebook also ships on the disk--the Maple scripts serve the same purpose as the MATLAB scripts for Maple users.

This book focuses the solutions of linear algebra and matrix analysis problems, with the exclusive use of MATLAB. The topics include representations, fundamental analysis, transformations of matrices, matrix equation solutions as well as matrix functions. Attempts on matrix and linear algebra applications are also explored.
