Course outline:
This is a short half year introductory course in differential equations for engineering students. Differential equations are of basic importance in engineering mathematics because many physical laws and relations appear mathematically in the form of differential equations. The first part of the course will focus on the standard methods of solving first and second order ordinary differential equations, i.e separation of variables, integrating factor, series solutions. The second part of the course will develop important techniques of finding general solutions for the classical partial differential equations (the wave equation, the diffusion equation and Laplace’s equation ) in explicit form.
