Excerpt from Engineering Applications of Higher Mathematics, Vol. 2
The first part of this work containing problems in machine design was published in 1912, and the favorable reception accorded it gave the author the courage to publish the rest of the problems which he had collected and used in his classes for some years. The second part contains problems selected from various branches of hydraulics, in the solution of which it is necessary to use calculus and analytic geometry. The remaining three parts of the work contain problems selected from thermodynamics, mechanics of materials, and electrical engineering. In this way, a student or an engineer who washes to review calculus or analytics, or to acquire facility in applications of higher mathematics to engineering problems, may select at first the part of the work which deals with problems in that branch of engineering with which he is most familiar, or in which he is particularly interested.
The author aimed everywhere to show the student not only the possibilities of the mathematical method in engineering, but by implication to indicate its limitations as well. The prominent French engineer Dupuit has well said: "Formulæ are but tools which may guide intelligence, but can never replace it."
