Summary

This second edition of a highly successful text now updated introduces new developments like soft computing and Object Oriented Programming. This text is divided in three parts: ú Programming ú Applications ú Software Development Coverage on CAD and its impact, C and C++ programming are presented for engineering problems with database and graphics as the bases and finite elements, optimisation and soft computing methods as applications. Initial developments towards C language and orientation to CAD in engineering applications is followed by programming approaches for engineering applications with a number of examples in C code demonstrating easy adaptability to solving problems. Emphasis is layed on data base and graphic approaches forming essential feature of engineering problem solving. Key Features: l Extensions to using finite elements, Optimisation and soft computing methods like ANN and GA form a major attraction of this edition l Internet applications and CIDD-C
