Objectives
This Mathematics course provides requisite and relevant background necessary to understand the other important engineering mathematics courses offered for Engineers and Scientists. Three important topics of applied mathematics, namely the Multiple integrals, Vector calculus, Laplace transforms which require knowledge of integration are introduced.
Expected Outcome
At the end of this course the students are expected to learn
(i)
how to evaluate multiple integrals in Cartesian, Cylindrical and Spherical geometries.
(ii)
the powerful language of Vector calculus with physical understanding to deal with subjects such as Fluid Dynamics and Electromagnetic fields.
(iii)
to solve ordinary differential equations directly and also use transform methods where its possible Unit 1
