EE2015: Differential Equations and Complex Variables (Fall 2010).

This semester, I would divide this course into 3 parts, with the first part on "ODEs" for the first month, the second part on "Laplace transform" for 3 weeks, and the third part on "Series and Complex Variables" for the rest.

Due to the time limit, only the topics listed below would be taught, in order to let the students have a better understanding.

Textbook:

E. Kreyszig, "Advanced Engineering Mathematics", 9th Ed., John Wiley & Sons, Inc., (2006).

Syllabus:

1. Ordinary Differential Equations: (4-5 weeks)
First-Oder ODEs
Second-Order ODEs
Higher-Order ODEs
Systems of ODEs

2. Laplace Transform: (3 weeks)

3. Series and Complex Variables
Power Series (1.5 weeks)
Fourier Series; (2 weeks)
PDEs and Their Solutions by Fourier Series (3 weeks)
Taylor and Laurent Series (1.5 weeks)
Complex and Residue Integrations (2 weeks)

Evaluation:

Homeworks x 6, 40%;
Exams x 3, 60%.

Office hours:

RK: 3:00-5:00PM, Thursday at Room 523, EECS bldg.
