授業の目的 【日本語】
This course is a companion course to Mathematical Physics II. Students master analytical techniques for problems that arise in physics, engineering and chemistry. This course introduces first order and second order ordinary differential equations and their solution methods. Questions of uniqueness of solutions and convergence are also discussed. Students are also introduced to Fourier series, the Fourier transform, convolution, Laplace transform, and the Dirac delta function. Students will find this mathematical methods course helpful in other units such as Quantum Mechanics, Analytical Mechanics, Electricity and Magnetism, as well as in Automotive Engineering and other engineering courses. This course has dual aims: 1) to convey mathematical principles; 2) to improve students’ technical ability ? i.e. ability to express intuition in mathematical terms and ability to solve problems.
