- Updated MATLAB examples
- New pictures to enhance student understanding of concepts
- Over thirty new example problems
- Over thirty brand new problems, as well as many more updated problems
In Chapters 1 through 5, we introduce the students to the engineering profession, how to prepare for an exciting engineering career, the design process, engineering communication, and ethics. Chapter 1 provides a comprehensive introduction to the engineering profession and its branches. It explains some of the common traits of good engineers. Various engineering disciplines and engineering organizations are discussed. In Chapter 1, we also emphasize that engineers are problem solvers. Engineers have a good grasp of fundamental physical and chemical laws and mathematics, and they apply these fundamental laws and principles to design, develop, test, and supervise the manufacture of millions of products and services. The examples provided demonstrate the many satisfying and challenging jobs for engineers.
