  • 0.00 Credits

    An extension of material in the introductory calculus sequences including topics from among algebraic substitution, DeMoivre's theorem, Euler'sformula, sequences and series (including Fourier series), series solutions of differential equations, polar coordinates, L'Hopital's rule, improperintegrals, and vector calculus. Prerequisite: SM-2214 STCW: None
  • 0.00 Credits

    This course introduces mathematical tools used in many common applications in engineering. We treat matrices, systems of linear equations, vector spaces and linear transformations with emphasis on eigenvectors and eigenvalues applied to systems of differential equations. Fourier series are applied to solving inhomogeneous linear differential equations such as those that appear in forced oscillations, and partial differential equations such as those of heat transfer. Analytic functions and conformal mapping are presented as a method to solve the Laplace equation.. Prerequisite: SM-6115 STCW: None
