Learning outcomes |
It is intended that the students develop a clear understanding, relate and apply the fundamental concepts of multivariable calculus: 1. Study vector functions and functions of several variables: domains, ranges, graphs, level sets, topology in Rn; 2. Compute limits and study continuity; 3. Compute partial derivatives and study differentiability; 4. Recognize the significance of the gradient and its relationship with directional derivatives and linear approximation; 5. Apply chain rule and the implicit function theorem; 6. Set up and solve optimization problems with or without constraints; 7. Set up and compute multiple integrals in cartesian, polar, cylindrical, and spherical coordinates, using double and triple integration, including use of change of variables techniques; 8. Apply multiple integrals to compute areas, volumes, mass, density function, work, and fluxes. 9 Solve basic differential equations. 10 Apply basic differential equations to mathematical modelling.
