Solutions for Engineers

A new series of interactive electronic resources for engineers is the latest add-on offering from the creators of Mathcad, the world's most popular mathematical problem-solving software for technical professionals. Published by McGraw Hill, the new Solutions Suite is based on the definitive Standard Handbook for Engineering Calculations, Third Edition by Tyler G. Hicks. They contain wide-ranging selections of authoritative text, tables, graphs and diagrams in addition to hundreds of formulae and equations that can be referred to and cut-and-pasted directly into Mathcad worksheets.

The three volumes in the Solutions Suite, which can be purchased individually, are aimed respectively at chemical, civil and architectural engineers. They can be run as standalone applications as well as from within Mathcad. Copious quantities of information are contained in each volume, sub-divided into a hundred or more logically arranged sections and easily accessed thanks to a highly user-friendly interface and comprehensive search capabilities.

The programs are easy to navigate through, and the required information found via the electronic table of contents or the powerful keyword or Boolean search facility. As soon as the formula or equation needed to solve the problem is found, it can be applied to the user's data and the results calculated on-screen instantly. Parameters can be changed and the solution recalculated as often as required.

The Chemical Engineer's Solutions Suite gives chemical engineers instant access to the essential data they need to make critical decisions relating to chemical mixing, batch processing, pumps, piping, steam transmission, energy saving, waste heat, gas and vapour disposal, separators, storage tanks and much more. The Chemical Engineer's Solutions Suite provides fast, accurate solutions to over 180 applied problems in chemical and plant process engineering, from analysing saturated solutions to designing pressure vessels.

The Civil Engineer's Solutions Suite contains more than 165 live formulas and equations, covering topics such as stress and strain, moving loads and influence lines, riveted and welded connections, steel beams and plate girders, steel columns and tension members, timber engineering, reinforced and pre-stressed concrete, fluid mechanics, surveying, aerial photogrammetry, soil mechanics and more. This interactive electronic tool helps civil engineers perform the critical calculations that ensure the structural integrity of a project.

The Architectural Engineer's Solutions Suite gives architectural engineers the tools to find the best solution for column and beam design, plumbing and drainage, HVAC systems, solar heating and cooling systems, vibration and wind stress analysis and much more ­p; everything from designing a stair slab to choosing air heating coils.

The complete range of Mathcad products, including Mathcad 7 Professional and the new Solutions Suite, is available from Adept Scientific plc, 6 Business Centre West, Avenue One, Letchworth, Herts, SG6 2HB; Telephone (01462) 480055; Fax (01462) 480213.
