Synopsis

MTH321 Engineering Mathematics II will introduce students to solve differential equations for solutions to engineering problems. The course will explore various fundamental techniques such as the method of undetermined coefficients and Laplace transform to solve ordinary differential equations and Fourier series to solve partial differential equations. Relevant physical models such as vibrating string, heat flow from a body in space and membranes will be taught alongside with the mathematics.
