By Alina Gabryszewska-Kukawa

Math and Physics for Design: Chosen Elements of Math and Physics for Designers introduces readers to vital rules and conventions that guide architectural design. With this knowledge, future designers can ensure their projects are stable, successful, and memorable.

The interactive ebook format allows students to read the text of each chapter and engage with digital learning activities-pre-reading Check Your Skills quizzes, informational and demonstrative videos, and assignments-all within a single system.

Unit I presents critical rules and conventions in math and science, with coverage of international systems of units, trigonometry basics, scientific notation, solving algebraic equations, converting units, and infographics. In Unit 2, students focus on math-based concepts, with coverage of statistics, fundamental coordinate systems, elements of geometry and trigonometry, scalars and vectors, and elements of descriptive geometry. The final unit concentrates on physics and includes lessons on kinematics, statics and dynamics, matter, thermodynamics, waves and elements of acoustics, electricity and magnetism, and light and optics.

Designed to equip future designers with an essential knowledge base, Math and Physics for Design is an ideal resource for courses and programs in architecture.
