About the Book: Engineering Physics is a textbook for students studying a course in Engineering. This book has been written according to the Engineering Physics Syllabus (2007-08) prescribed by Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU), Hyderabad. But it can be profitably used by the students of other Indian universities as well. The purpose of the book is to present the principles and concepts of Physics as relevant to an Engineer. Some of the salient features of the book are: * Lucid style * Clarity in the presentation of concepts * Numerous problems and solved examples * More than 500 figures About the Author: Dr. M.R. Srinivasan obtained his Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore in 1979. Prior to joining M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology in 1990, he worked at the Indian Institute of Science, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and City College of New York. His research interests include Experimental Solid State Physics, Ferroelectrics and Non-linear Optics.

This Book Is Designed For The First Year Engineering Students Of Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Hyderabad Strictly Adhere To The Prescribed Syllabus. The Lucid Explanation Of Different Concepts And Propositions And The Methodology Adopted Makes The Subject Easier To Understand And Also More Interesting For Students. Several Student Aids Have Been Incorporated Into This Book. These Include Objective Questions, Short Questions, A Series Of Review Questions And Problems At The End Of Each Chapter.

This book covers all relevant topics in Applied Physics taught to the students in EEE, ECE, EIE, E.cont.E, ICE, CSE, CSIT, CSSE, ETM, ECM and BME branches of Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU), Hyderabad. This book gives 100% coverage of the syllabus and it is as per the 2007 Revised JNTU Syllabus of Applied Physics. * Written aiming 100% coverage of revised syllabus of Applied Physics of JNTU (2007 - 2008) * Typical questions appeared in the examinations of JNTU are included at the end of each chapter. * Solved and exercise problems are included to develop the skill in analytical thought and numerical calculation. * Summary of the entire text is given at the end of each chapter. * Objective type questions are given to enable the students to prepare for their vivavoce examination.

Made Easy Series is developed with an objective of meeting the requirement of books that cover syllabi of important core engineering subjects focussing completely on the manner in which concepts will be tested in examinations. Books in this series are designed in a question-and-answer format to cater to undergraduate students of all major technological universities and to equip them with the desired knowledge in a simple yet comprehensive manner. They explore all the important concepts of the syllabi with the help of solved questions and numerical problems of previous years? question papers of these universities. Apart from being extremely student-friendly and lucid, the books in this series are rich in pedagogical features such as brief point-wise discussion of fundamental concepts, theoretical questions with answers, solved numerical problems, and objective questions and exercises for further practice (all taken from previous years? question papers) that aid students in preparing well for university examinations.Because of the fiercely competitive nature of the current academic scenario and the large number of books available for each topic, it is extremely difficult for students to spend too much time in an in-depth study of each book, especially during examinations when they are hard-pressed for time. Made Easy Series will empower students to prepare for university examinations in a systematic and thorough manner in a limited amount of time.The syllabi of the following universities have been covered in the book: UPTU, Anna Univ., JNTU, VTU, RTU, RGTU, WBUT, BPUT, PTU, Pune Univ., Mumbai Univ.

Our understanding of the fundamental processes of the natural world is based to a large extent on partial differential equations (PDEs). The second edition of Partial Differential Equations provides an introduction to the basic properties of PDEs and the ideas and techniques that have proven useful in analyzing them. It provides the student a broad perspective on the subject, illustrates the incredibly rich variety of phenomena encompassed by it, and imparts a working knowledge of the most important techniques of analysis of the solutions of the equations. In this book mathematical jargon is minimized. Our focus is on the three most classical PDEs: the wave, heat and Laplace equations. Advanced concepts are introduced frequently but with the least possible technicalities. The book is flexibly designed for juniors, seniors or beginning graduate students in science, engineering or mathematics.

The First Edition Of This Book Was Brought Out By Wiley Eastern Ltd. In 1994. The Sixth Edition Now At Your Hand Differs From The First Edition In Many Respects. Many-Sided Changes Both Qualitatively And Quantitatively Are The Quotable Features Of This Edition.The Purpose Of This Edition Is Not Only To Initiate The Beginners Into This Fascinating Subject, But Also To Prepare Them In This Area For The Postgraduate Examinations Conducted By Universities Spread All Over The Country. Reading This Text Book In Depth Rather Than A Casual, Go-Through May Improve The Workaholic Culture Of The Students Desiring Higher Education At Iits And Highly Graded Universities Through Gate. The Same Yardstick Is Adoptable By The Postgraduate Students In Physics And Engineering Streams Aiming To Score High Grades In The Written Tests Conducted By Upsc For Class I Posts In Various Central Government Departments And Boards.
