Supplements of my books

Supplements of my books entitled Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering (2006) and Essentials of Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering (2008) are available to everybody. Their most up to date versions can be found in my website http://www.metu.edu.tr/~bayin .

In the companion site for our book, Mathematical Methods in Science and Engineering  2006, we present solutions or hints to selected problems. These problems are not always chosen from the book. When they are directly taken from the book, or when they are related to a problem in the book, the corresponding problem number is given. Each problem is stated completely so that the interested reader can attempt to reach the solution before consulting the answers or the hints. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the contents of the corresponding chapter in the book. Rather than presenting the complete solutions, we usually prefer to discuss the method and guide the reader through the crucial intermediate steps. In this regard, even with the help given, these problems remain challenging exercises, which can generally be assigned by instructors in the given format.
