Course description and aims

Analysis for Electrical and Electronic Engineers focuses on the fundamentals of mathematical methodology of complex functions and differential equations.
Topics covered in this course will include the following: basic arithmetics of complex number, fundamentals of complex functions, differential calculus, regular function, Cauchy–Riemann equations, integration, Cauchy's theorem, Cauchy's integral expression, Goursat's theorem, residue theorem, 1st and 2nd order ordinary differential equation, partial differential equation, etc. Problem solving is essential for mastery of calculus and mathematical insight.

Firstly, complex number and its arithmetic calculation will be defined. Expression of complex plane will help your deep understandings of the relation between real and complex number. After introduction of power of complex and nth root, exponential function, trigonometric function and power series, etc. will be defined as an expansion of real functions. Subsequently, derivation of complex function will be introduced. Concept of differentiability of complex function and its condition will be given, which enables the expression of differential equation widely used in science and engineering field. Integral of complex function will be defined as a line integral in complex plane. Cauchy's integration formula will be explained, with which students shall acquire the calculation method of integration.
Latter half of this lecture will be started by the theory of solving the 1st order differential equation using variable separation method and variation constants method. To solve 2nd order differential equation, characteristic equation will be introduced. Relation between differential equation and electrical circuit will be pointed out. Finally, partial differential equations will be introduced and wave equation will be focused as an important application of electrical and electronic engineering. Through this lecture, students will acquire the mathematical principle and methodology for solving the problems in wide range of engineering field.
