Aim
The course provides fundamental knowledge of transformations and numerical analysis. It also gives training in mathematical modeling.

Content:

Transform Methods
Heavisidefunction.Dirac function.
Fouriertransforms. Laplace transforms. Z-transform.
Applications on continuous and discrete dynamical systems.

Numerical analysis:

Linear systems of equations, non-linear equations and systems of equations.
Polynomial interpolation. Cubic spline interpolation.
Numerical treatment of initial value problems, boundary value problems for ordinary and partial differential equations. Discretization by finite differences and finite volumes.
Applications in the solution of engineering problems.

Prerequisites
Basic linear algebra and single-variable calculus

REPETITION before the exam (TEN1); PART 1, Transform Methods

Allowed to use : Calculator, Handbook Beta, Tables with Laplace, Fourier and z-transforms
Use of any communication device is strictly prohibited when taking this examination.
Grading: For each correct solution 4 points will be awarded. Credit will be given for presentation and methods of solutions. A maximum of 24 points can be earned. Points can also be deducted for unsubstantiated answers. At least 12 points are required to pass the exam.

Grading scale : Total points: 24
12 - 17 points are required for the grade 3;
18 - 20 points are required for the grade 4;
21 -24 points are required for the grade 5

There will be a supplementary exam for those students who can manage at least 9 points in the exam.
The supplementary exam will be different from the regularly scheduled exam, though it will cover the same material
