Emilson Pereira Leite is a Professor at the Institute of Geosciences, University of Campinas, Brazil. He received his PhD in Geophysics from University of São Paulo in 2005. He has published around 20 articles in peer-reviewed journals, conferences and popular science magazines. He has been working with MATLAB® for the last decade and is the Editor of the book entitled 'Matlab - Modelling, Programming and Simulations, published by Sciyo in 2010.
The purpose of this book is to present 10 scientific and engineering works whose numerical and graphical analysis were all constructed using the power of MATLAB® tools. The first five chapters of this book show applications in seismology, meteorology and natural environment. Chapters 6 and 7 focus on modeling and simulation of Water Distribution Networks. Simulation was also applied to study wide area protection for interconnected power grids (Chapter 8) and performance of conical antennas (Chapter 9). The last chapter deals with depth positioning of underwater robot vehicles. Therefore, this book is a collection of interesting examples of where this computational package can be applied.
