pThrough four previous editions of iAdvanced Engineering Mathematics with MATLABi, the author presented a wide variety of topics needed by today's engineers. The fifth edition of that book, available now, has been broken into two parts topics currently needed in mathematics courses and a new stand-alone volume presenting topics not often included in these courses and consequently unknown to engineering students and many professionals.ppThe overall structure of this new book consists of two parts transform methods and random processes. Built upon a foundation of applied complex variables, the first part covers advanced transform methods, as well as z-transforms and Hilbert transforms--transforms of particular interest to systems, communication, and electrical engineers. This portion concludes with Green's function, a powerful method of analyzing systems. ppThe second portion presents random processes--processes that more accurately model physical and biological engineering.
