Engineering Science
Engineering Science will help you understand the scientific principles involved in engineering. Focusing primarily upon core mechanical and electrical science topics, students enrolled on an Engineering Foundation degree and Higher National Engineering qualification will find this book an invaluable aid to their learning. The subject matter covered includes sections on the mechanics of solids, dynamics, thermodynamics, electrostatics and electromagnetic principles, and AC and DC circuit theory. Knowledge-check questions, summary sections and activities are included throughout the book, and the necessary background mathematics is applied and integrated alongside the appropriate areas of engineering being studied. The result is a clear, straightforward and easily accessible textbook that encourages independent study and covers most of the scientific principles that students are likely to meet at this level. It is supported with a companion website at http://www.key2engineeringscience.com for students and lecturers: Solutions to the Test your Knowledge questions in the book Further guidance on essential mathematics Extra chapters on vapour properties, cycles and plants Downloadable SCILAB scripts that helps simplify advanced mathematical content

What is engineering science? - applied science or a notion beyond applied and basic science? What are the responsibilities of an engineer? What will the future require of engineers and how do we get there? This book seeks to answer these and many more questions. Engineering is not necessarily applied science or a subsection of the natural sciences - it could be a science in its own right. Becoming an engineer could involve much more than maths and physics - it could also involve a general understanding of the responsibilities towards society - and maybe a broader approach to engineering and technology would benefit the engineering sciences in general. The background for the present publication is a quest for a thorough analysis of engineering, engineering science, and engineering education. Focusing on the concepts of engineering science, skills, and Bildung, the book investigates the real challenges that are confronting engineering today, and discusses how to respond to these. Thereby, the book offers a complex and nuanced basis for debates on the actual status and the future directions of engineering science, engineering education, and the everyday practice of engineers.
Science for Engineering
Engineering science is introduced through examples rather than theory in this book, enabling students to develop a sound understanding of engineering systems in terms of the basic scientific laws and principles.
