Synopsis :
This course is about multivariable calculus of real and vector-valued functions. The basic theory of partial derivatives and multiple integrals of real functions with their applications are discussed. This theory is extended to vector valued functions to describe motion in space, directional derivatives, gradient, divergence and curl, line integrals, surface integrals and volume integral. Related theorems, namely Green’s Theorem, Stokes’ Theorem and Gauss’ Divergence Theorem and their applications are discussed.
Objectives:
On completing the course, students should be able to:
- express functions of two and three variables using graphical representations.
- apply partial derivatives on problems involving rate of change, estimations, relative and absolute extrema.
- solve double and triple integrals in various coordinate systems involving area, volume, centre of mass and moment.
- Discriminate express directional derivatives, tangent, normal vectors, divergence and curl of vector-valued functions using del operator.
- solve line and surface integrals, and apply related theorems to engineering problems (chemical/civil/electrical/mechanical).
