Advanced Mathematics for Engineering Students: The Essential Toolbox provides a concise treatment for applied mathematics. Derived from two semester advanced mathematics courses at the author's university, the book delivers the mathematical foundation needed in an engineering program of study. Other treatments typically provide a thorough but somewhat complicated presentation where students do not appreciate the application. This book focuses on the development of tools to solve most types of mathematical problems that arise in engineering - a 'toolbox for the engineer. It provides an important foundation but goes one step further and demonstrates the practical use of new technology for applied analysis with commercial software packages (e.g., algebraic, numerical and statistical). - Delivers a focused and concise treatment on the underlying theory and direct application of mathematical methods so that the reader has a collection of important mathematical tools that are easily understood and ready for application as a practicing engineer - The book material has been derived from class-tested courses presented over many years in applied mathematics for engineering students (all problem sets and exam questions given for the course(s) are included along with a solution manual) - Provides fundamental theory for applied mathematics while also introducing the application of commercial software packages as modern tools for engineering application, including: EXCEL (statistical analysis); MAPLE (symbolic and numeric computing environment); and COMSOL (finite element solver for ordinary and partial differential equations)

Dr. Brent Lewis PhD, PEng is retired Dean, Faculty of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science, University of Ontario Institute of Technology (2013-2015); Professor and UNENE/NSERC Industrial Research Chair, Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) (1988-2013), Scientist and Section Head, Chalk River Laboratories (1980-1988). Dr. Lewis has authored 360 journal articles, conference proceedings and reports, has consulted extensively for the domestic and international nuclear fuel community, and participated in the severe accident research program of France's Commissariat … l'Energie Atomique in 1994-1995. He has also served on various committees and working groups, including several Standards Committees, the Executive Committee of the Material Science and Technology Division for the American Nuclear Society (ANS), the International Commission on Radiological Protection, the International Organization for Standardization, the International Space Station Multilateral Radiation Health Working Group for the Canadian Space Agency, UNENE and COG. As a result of his research work, he has received several awards from the ANS. Dr. Lewis was appointed a Fellow of the CNS in 2002.
