An accessible introduction to the fundamentals of calculus
needed to solve current problems in engineering and the physical
sciences
I ntegration is an important function of calculus, and
Introduction to Integral Calculus combines fundamental concepts
with scientific problems to develop intuition and skills for
solving mathematical problems related to engineering and the
physical sciences. The authors provide a solid introduction to
integral calculus and feature applications of integration,
solutions of differential equations, and evaluation methods. With
logical organization coupled with clear, simple explanations, the
authors reinforce new concepts to progressively build skills and
knowledge, and numerous real-world examples as well as intriguing
applications help readers to better understand the connections
between the theory of calculus and practical problem solving.
The first six chapters address the prerequisites needed to
understand the principles of integral calculus and explore such
topics as anti-derivatives, methods of converting integrals into
standard form, and the concept of area. Next, the authors review
numerous methods and applications of integral calculus,
including:
* Mastering and applying the first and second fundamental theorems
of calculus to compute definite integrals
* Defining the natural logarithmic function using calculus
* Evaluating definite integrals
* Calculating plane areas bounded by curves
* Applying basic concepts of differential equations to solve
ordinary differential equations
With this book as their guide, readers quickly learn to solve a
broad range of current problems throughout the physical sciences
and engineering that can only be solved with calculus. Examples
throughout provide practical guidance, and practice problems and
exercises allow for further development and fine-tuning of various
calculus skills. Introduction to Integral Calculus is an excellent
book for upper-undergraduate calculus courses and is also an ideal
reference for students and professionals who would like to gain a
further understanding of the use of calculus to solve problems in a
simplified manner.
