Advanced engineering has made it necessary for all engineers to become exposed to computer-based tools and techniques. The computational technology, which allows engineers to carry out data modelling, visualisation and distribution techniques, is known as computer-aided engineering (CAE). This book will assist undergraduate engineering students enrolled in non-computer related departments,who need more fundamental education in CAE. This will be the first textbook available for this area of study.
