| Målsætning : | To provide the students with basic knowledge in the fundamental tools for constructing and analyze mathematical models, and to provide a basis for further studies in modern engineering mathematics. The use of computer software supports both of these aspects. A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: • Apply matrix algebra and Gaussian elimination to solve systems of linear equations. • Use vectors to solve engineering problems. • Apply differentiation and integration to engineering problems. • Analyse simple mathematical models. • Find lengths, areas and volumes of geometrical entities. • Solve simple first order and second order differential equations. • Recognise use of the Laplace transform. • Use the algebraic and geometric representations of complex numbers and the complex exponential function. • Find partial derivatives and linear approximation. • Determine extrema for functions of several variables. • Use computer software, currently MathCAD, for the solution and the graphical illustration of mathematical problems. • Read engineering literature on applied mathematics. |
