Notes and Text:
This module has been
taught for quite some time using the excellent set of notes Charles
Nash typed up years ago when he was the lecturer, and so I'm going to
adopt a "don't fix it if it ain't broke" approach and follow his notes
extremely closely; each chapter will go up here after all its material
has been covered in lectures. Here's what we've seen so far:
Title Page and Preface
Chapter I: Introductory Analysis
Chapter II: Differential Calculus
Chapter III: Integration
Chapter IV: Miscellaneous Topics
If these aren't enough, then the following text (also recommended in
the above Preface) might serve as a supplementary source:
D. J. Booth and K. A. Stroud, Engineering Mathematics (Palgrave
MacMillan)
Assessment:
The assessment for this module will be 80% final exam + 20% continuous
assessment. The continuous assessment consisted of weekly assignments
in the form of problem sets; here they are:
Problem Set 1
Problem Set 2
Problem Set 3
Problem Set 4
Problem Set 5
Problem Set 6
Problem Set 7
Problem Set 8
Problem Set 9
Problem Set 10
Problem Set 11
The examination took place on 18 January
2019; here it is, and
here are its solutions.
