This book provides comprehensive coverage of the subject for undergraduate students (BE/BTech) of engineering disciplines. Relevant numerical questions of GATE have been solved to make the book suitable for the students appearing in various entrance examinations. All the solved and unsolved problems in this book are tested and illustrate the topics thoroughly. Emphasis is laid on the pedagogical aspects of the subject.
Spread in 10 chapters, the book broadly deals with:
