Course description and aims

The purpose of this class is to obtain basic knowledge of mathematics to solve various problems related to engineering and science from an interdisciplinary view point. Focusing on ordinary differential equations, basic skills for both theoretical and/or numerical solutions are lectured.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this class, students will be able to:
(1) Judge which ordinary equations should be used to express the phenomena of interest.
(2) Solve the problem by using theoretical and numerical methods.
(3) Understand the implication of solutions and interpret the phenomena physically.

Keywords

ordinary differential equations: theoretical solution: numerical solution: interdisciplinary view point: physical interpretation

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

The course mainly provides classroom lectures with mini-examination.
