Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

I'm in Mechanical but we share Maths classes with the Mechatronics students; you'll need differentiation and integration (the basics, at least) and matrices as well. Indices are also essential, before you start diff and int, you need to know how to work with powers, and how they react with each other.

Get Engineering Mathematics by K.A. Stroud; you'll pick up a second-hand copy on fleabay for feck all and it's an excellent book to assist you.
