Foundations of Mathematical Modeling and Analysis in Engineering

Foundations of Mathematical Modeling and Analysis in Engineering offers a comprehensive
presentation of the mathematical principles underpinning modern engineering and the quantitative sciences, and develops mathematical modeling as a foundational intellectual discipline. Designed for graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and accessible to seasoned professionals, it provides the means to develop and employ mathematical representations of physical processes and systems.

1. Introduction
2. Mathematical representations of physical phenomena
3. Solving linear algebraic equations
4. Vector spaces and their representations
5. Linear transformations and representations
6. Inner product spaces
7. Operators and matrix representations
8. Ordinary differential equations
9. Function representation and transforms
10. Partial differential equations
11. System and parameter identification
