Computational Methods in Engineering brings to light the numerous uses of numerical methods in engineering. It clearly explains the application of these methods mathematically and practically, emphasi

There is an increasing need for undergraduate students in physics to have a core set of computational tools. Most problems in physics benefit from numerical methods, and many of them resist analytical solution altogether. This textbook presents numerical techniques for solving familiar physical problems where a complete solution is inaccessible using traditional mathematical methods. The numerical techniques for solving the problems are clearly laid out, with a focus on the logic and applicability of the method. The same problems are revisited multiple times using different numerical techniques, so readers can easily compare the methods. The book features over 250 end-of-chapter exercises. A website hosted by the author features a complete set of programs used to generate the examples and figures, which can be used as a starting point for further investigation. A link to this can be found at www.cambridge.org/9781107034303.

Discover the incredible story of Cristiano Ronaldo, an inspirational athlete, global megastar and one of the world’s greatest footballers. Born on the island of Madeira in Portugal, Cristiano grew up playing football from a very young age. With determination and self-belief, he pursued his dream of becoming a professional player, overcoming setbacks and challenges – including surgery for a heart condition called tachycardia – along the way. From his first matches in local clubs to international stardom, his journey shows the power of hard work, resilience and courage. This inspiring book introduces children to Ronaldo’s record-breaking career, including three consecutive Premier League titles with Manchester United, victories in the Champions League and Club World Cup, and his record transfer to Real Madrid in 2009. Ronaldo’s remarkable, record-breaking career is a story of hard work and determination, one that is sure to resonate with young sports fans, inspiring them to dream big and

Following on from the hugely popular Mesozoic Art, this magnificent new volume showcases 20 amazing artists whose work represents the very best of palaeoart. Our knowledge of how dinosaurs and other extinct species looked is continuously evolving with each new palaeontological discovery, as is the dramatic art that depicts these ancient worlds. Palaeoartists now have access to more information than ever before, allowing them to achieve greater levels of accuracy in their work. Using fossilised material and the latest scientific knowledge, palaeoartists visualise and recreate creatures from the prehistoric world - they put flesh on the bones of long-extinct species and their environments. It is through this imaginative artform that fossils can be brought to life in fresh, breathtaking detail. Mesozoic Art II presents 20 new leading paleoartists who present life in the primordial past through a broad diversity of artistic styles and techniques, from traditional oil painting to cutting-ed

Playful, interactive, and full of whimsy, Sean Taylor's collection of poems invites little ones to get their fingers, hands, and wiggles ready. One little friendin the playground . . . sliding.Two little friends playing chase and . . . hiding.What better way to get little ones excited about poems than to make them part of the delivery? In the hallowed tradition of nursery rhymes and songs like "Itsy Bitsy Spider," this imaginative collection entices children to use their fingers, hands, and sometimes whole bodies to bring a variety of verses to life. Whether the subject is sailing ships or stomping dinosaurs, falling snow or popping bubbles, jumping onto waterslides or riding a crowded elevator, Sean Taylor's rhythmic read-aloud verses pair with Fiona Woodcock's fresh, colorful illustrations, offering clues to the finger actions kids can follow--unless they're happily acting things out already, using shapes and movements all their own.

Artificial Intelligence is all about humans asking computers and other machines to think and even behave like humans, and to take on jobs that people find too difficult or too boring. But how do you actually define the term? What exactly can machines with AI already do, and what might they be able to do in the future?AI For Beginners answers all the questions - where answers exist - and raises debating points at every turn about what it all means. Should we be asking machines to do creative tasks, such as writing and illustrating books? Do we need to worry if intelligent machines need to be treated like people? Is there a chance that machines might take over the world, either by accident or on purpose? Is there any point going to school and doing homework if computers can do it all for us, and better?

A love letter to books, showing how many elements and people contribute to making something beautiful, from Caldecott honoree Elisha Cooper In this poetic and beautifully illustrated ode to creativity and the process of making books, Caldecott honoree Elisha Cooper takes readers on a journey showing how words and art move from one person to another. From writer to reader, and everyone who contributes in between: Here is a book, made with love. An artist's studio overflows with sketches, drafts, a wastebasket, and wonder. A publisher's office hums with computers, layouts, coffee, and teamwork. A printer makes a layout into a book using presses, ink, paper, and time. And that book travels to a school, to a library, to a student, to a home.
