Mathematical Formulas for Industrial and Mechanical Engineering

Preface

The material of this book has been compiled so that it serves the needs of

students and teachers as well as professional workers who use mathematics. The

contents and size make it especially convenient and portable. The widespread

availability and low price of scientific calculators have greatly reduced the need

for many numerical tables that make most handbooks bulky. However, most cal-
