17 Differential Equations Ma102
17 Differential Equations Ma102
This course introduces basic ideas of differential equations, both ordinary and partial, which are
widely used in the modelling and analysis of a wide range of physical phenomena and has got
applications across all branches of engineering. The course also introduces Fourier series which is
used by engineers to represent and analyse periodic functions in terms of their frequency
components.
Syllabus
At the end of the course students will have acquired basic knowledge of differential equations and
methods of solving them and their use in analysing typical mechanical or electrical systems.
The included set of assignments will familiarise the students with the use of software packages for
analysing systems modelled by differential equations.
