Credit Points | 7.1 |
Coordinator | Assoc. Professor R. L. Hughes |
Prerequisites | An Honour in Mathematics for Engineers Unit 3.1 (or equivalent) |
Semester | 2 |
Contact | 24 hours of lectures and 12 hours of tutorials |
Subject Description | The objective of this subject is to give students a knowledge of how to determine the integrand so as to extremise the integral and how to integrate functions without determining the anti-derivative. Topics covered include: Part 1 Advanced Equations: Delayed equations, difference equations, functional equations, integral equations of Fredholm and Volterra types, chaotic systems of equations. Part 2 Perturbation Methods: Regular perturbations, the two types of singular perturbations, asymptotic behaviour for both boundary layers and long times. |
Assessment | One written examination not exceeding three-hours at the end of second semester. Plus additional tests and assignments to a maximum value of 10% |
