Engineering with Mathcad
Using Mathcad to Create and Organize Your Engineering Calculations
Using Mathcad to Create and Organize Your Engineering Calculations
Mathcad is perfectly suited for engineering calculations. You work in Mathcad just as you would on a piece of calculation paper. The equations you write on a piece of paper can be entered into Mathcad just as they look on the paper, and just as quickly as you write them on the paper. The benefit of Mathcad is that your calculations are now electronic and can be archived,shared with coworkers, reused on other projects and updated as variables change.Another advantage of Mathcad is that your results can be used in further calculations. If the variables for the first result change, then all the calculations based on that first result are also immediately updated.
Mathcad is easy to learn. There is no programming language that you need to learn. With just a few simple instructions, you can begin using Mathcad. With Mathcad all your calculations are presented on the worksheet. They are not hidden in cells as they are in spreadsheets. Also, all variables are named. You do not need to remember which cells the variables are stored in. This makes
checking the Mathcad calculations much simpler.
This book is divided into four parts:
Part I—Building your Mathcad Toolbox. This is where you build your Mathcad toolbox—your basic understanding of Mathcad. It teaches the basics of the Mathcad program. The chapters in this part create a solid foundation upon which to build.
Part II—Hand Tools for your Mathcad Toolbox. The chapters in this part will focus on simple features to get you comfortable with Mathcad.
Part III—Power Tools for your Mathcad Toolbox. This part addresses more complex and powerful Mathcad features.
PartIV—Creating and Organizing your Engineering Calculations with Mathcad.
This is where you start using the tools in your toolbox to build something— engineering calculations. This part discusses embedding other programs into Mathcad. It also discusses how to assemble calculations from multiple Mathcad files, and files from other programs.
