OBJECTIVES:
The goal of this course is for students to gain proficiency in calculus computations.
In calculus, we use three main tools for analyzing and describing the behavior of functions:
limits, derivatives, and integrals. Students will use these tools to solve application problems
in a variety of settings ranging from physics and biology to business and economics.
To make the student acquire sound knowledge of techniques in solving ordinary differential
equations that model engineering problems.
To familiarize the student with functions of several variables. This is needed in many
branches of engineering.
To acquaint the student with mathematical tools needed in evaluating multiple integrals and
their usage.
UNIT I DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS 12
Representation of functions - New functions from old functions - Limit of a function - Limits at
infinity - Continuity - Derivatives - Differentiation rules - Polar coordinate system - Differentiation in
polar coordinates - Maxima and Minima of functions of one variable.
UNIT II FUNCTIONS OF SEVERAL VARIABLES 12
Partial derivatives – Homogeneous functions and Euler’s theorem – Total derivative –
Differentiation of implicit functions – Change of variables – Jacobians – Partial differentiation of
implicit functions – Taylor’s series for functions of two variables – Errors and approximations –
Maxima and minima of functions of two variables – Lagrange’s method of undetermined
14
multipliers.
OUTCOMES:
Understanding of the ideas of limits and continuity and an ability to calculate with them and
apply them.
Improved facility in algebraic manipulation.
Fluency in differentiation.
Fluency in integration using standard methods, including the ability to find an appropriate
method for a given integral.
Understanding the ideas of differential equations and facility in solving simple standard
examples.
