Catalog Description

EGR599 Advanced Engineering Mathematics (4)
The course presents mathematical techniques for practical applications in engineering. It basically will cover both differential equations and linear algebra, and introduce the MATLAB tools. The approach is to integrate analytical and computer solutions of problems that lead to understanding of advanced mathematical techniques. The course will provide many examples showing applications of mathematical principles using numerical and symbolic computer solutions. 4 lectures/problem-solving.

Prerequisite: Undergraduate course in differential equations.

Course Objectives

After completing this course the student will be able to …

1.Apply the matrix methods to solve practical problems in engineering.

2.Solve the system of first-order ODE (Ordinary Differential Equations).

3.Solve the linear ODE of second and higher order.

4.Apply the methods of Separation of Variable and Fourier Transform to solve the important linear partial differential equations of the second order (Laplace, Poisson, wave, and heat equations).

Homework

Homework must be turned in prior to the start of class on the day that it is due. No late homework will be accepted. Not all of the assigned problems will be graded, but you will not know in advance which will be graded, so it is best to do them all. An engineer's work should be neat, well organized, and easy to follow. Points may be deducted for work that does not adhere to this format. The following information must be on the top of the first page of your homework.

How you get your answer is very important in engineering, therefore show all of your work on assignments, quizzes, and exams. Mark your final answer clearly by drawing a box around it. Except for the questions that require you to fill in the blank, no credit will be given for final answers that do not show the work involved. Staple all pages of an assignment together in the upper left corner.
