MAE/APC 501: Mathematical Methods of Engineering Analysis I
Course information, Fall 2014
Instructors Clancy Rowley (Lectures) cwrowley@princeton.edu Oce hours: Fri, 910a, E-quad D232 Sebastin Rojas Mata (AI) srmata@princeton.edu Oce hours: Wed, 46p, E-quad J-wing atrium Schedule Time: TTh, 910:20am Place: Friend Center 006 Course summary The rst half of the course covers linear algebra, including Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces, linear operators, and their spectral properties. The second half of the course covers ordinary dierential equations, Greens functions, and variational methods. A detailed syllabus is given below. Prerequisites Undergraduate-level engineering mathematics: elementary linear algebra, multivariable calcu- lus, and ordinary dierential equations. Grading There will be approximately bi-weekly homework assignments (35%), a midterm (30%), and a nal exam (35%). Exams will be open book/open notes, take home, 34 hour total duration. Course text and references There is no required text for this course. The lecture notes are available as a PDF le on the courses Blackboard site. There are two versions: a regular version formatted for letter-sized paper, and an iPad-optimized version. If you would like a hard copy of the lecture notes, spiral-bound copies are available at Pequod (in the on-campus U-store) for a reasonable price. I do recommend purchasing a hard copy if you would like to use the notes for the open-book exams, as electronic devices are not permitted during exams. Please do not print out the lecture notes on a University printer. The lecture notes are intended to be self-contained, but if you would like more information, many references are given in the notes.
