Dimensional analysis is used to clarify and explain relationships between physical quantities, and is based on the idea that fundamental relationships between physical quantities must be expressed in units of the same kind: for example quantities expressed in miles and meters can be compared, but one in kilometers and another in centigrade cannot. Palmer (National U. of Singapore) presents a textbook for undergraduate students that sets out the principles and illustrates them with examples from engineering and physics.
