Features: This book is a revision based on the editions of the "Teaching Syllabus for Engineering Mathematics (Draft)" approved in 1980. The main contents include four chapters: Vector Analysis, Field Theory, Hamiltonian Operator, and the representations of gradients, curl, and harmonic quantities in orthogonal curvilinear coordinate systems. Compared to the editions, in addition to Chapters 3 and 4 being moved from appendices to the main text, several additional contents and examples/exercises have been added. The book is well-argued and clearly written, making it suitable as a textbook for half-professional engineering students. Accompanied by the "Study Guide for Engineering Mathematics—Vector Analysis and Field Theory" (1982 edition), this textbook can also be used by correspondence schools and self-learners.
