Objectives
In this Course, you will learn the calculation and mathematical modeling skills you need in the engineering profession. The sub-area is differential and integral calculus
At the end of the course, you
• recognize exponential and logarithmic functions
• can solve exponential and logarithmic equations and apply them in engineering problems
• you know the basic calculations of matrices and know some applications
• can use the concepts and notations related to limit value, derivative and integral
• can interpret the derivative as a rate of change
• can determine the derivative and integral graphically, numerically and symbolically
• know how to solve application tasks, the modeling of which requires the use of a derivative or an integral
• are able to present and justify logically chosen solutions
• you know how to evaluate the reasonableness and correctness of the solutions you make
Content
• exponential and logarithmic function
• exponential equation, logarithmic equation
• basic matrix concepts and calculations (sum, multiplication by a number, product, determinant, inverse matrix)
• solving a group of linear equations with matrices
• some matrix applications
• the concept of limit value in brief
• derivative of the graph
• derivative numerically
• calculating the derivative using the rules of derivation
• higher derivatives (used at the entry level)
• some applications of the derivative (e.g. differential and total differential, error estimation and extreme values)
• the definite integral graphically
• definite integral numerically
• calculating the integral function using integration rules
• basic theorem of analysis, definite integral symbolically
