Engineerng Refresher
(OP)
I'm sure some others out there have had this same issue so I figured I would ask here first...
I have been out of school for about 8 years now and I'm finding that I am forgetting more and more of what I used to know. The only thing that stays fresh in my head is statics and machine design because I use them frequently. I would like to get back up to speed on calculus, system dynamics, controls, and heat transfer but I don't want to go back and read my text books all over again.
Can anyone out there recommend a good resource (book, website, etc.) to refresh my brain? I would prefer something that has examples and practice problems.

Failing that, the original textbooks are what I fall back on.

So, I would recommend that you get the books , do some of the problems and then for a good a source of everyday problems go to the various engineering forums and start answering some of the problems and read some of the answers.
Then, you can use the books as a resource when needed and stay sharp.
