Summary
Systems of n ordinary linear differential equations of the first order for n
functions: definition, representation at matrix form, methods of solution of
systems of 2 equations for 2 functions, Euler method for homogeneous systems of
n equations for n functions. Integral calculus of functions of several
independent variables: two-dimensional integrals, three-dimensional integrals,
vector analysis, line integral of the first and the second kind, surface
integral of the first and second kind. Infinite series: number series, series
of functions, power series.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Mathematics is essential part of education on technical universities.
It should be considered rather the method in the study of technical
courses than a goal. Thus the goal of mathematics is train logical
reasoning than mere list of mathematical notions, algorithms and
methods.
Students should learn how to
analyze problems,
distinguish between important and unimportant,
suggest a method of solution,
verify each step of a method,
generalize achieved results,
analyze correctness of achieved results with respect to given conditions,
apply these methods while solving technical problems,
understand that mathematical methods and theoretical advancements
outreach the field mathematics.
