Sturn-Liouville (Eigenvalue) Problems

Special Functions : Guassian error function, Gamma and Beta functions, Bessel
functions, elliptic integrals, and Legendre functions.
Integral Transforms : Laplace, Fourier, Hankel, Legendre, and Finite Transforms
Non-liner Analysis : Equations and systems, and ordinary differential equations
Approximate Methods : Variational methods, weighted residual methods, perturbation
methods, or integral methods. Applications in
dynamics/vibrations, electricity, transport phenomena, fluid
dynamics, and elasticity.

RATIONALE:
The purpose of this course is to strengthen and support the mathematical needs of graduate students
in the engineering program. Since this is a faculty core course, examples will be chosen from all
branches of engineering as is appropriate.

PREREQUISITES:
Students will be expected to have a background in linear algebra, introductory ordinary and partial
differential equations, vector calculus, and numerical methods as covered in the engineering

ACADEMIC INTEGRITY AND PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT:


Students are expected to conduct themselves in all aspects of the course at the highest level of
academic integrity. Any student found to commit academic misconduct will be dealt with
according to the Faculty and University practices. More information is available at
http://www.mun.ca/engineering/undergrad/academicintegrity.php

Students are encouraged to consult the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science Student
Code of Conduct at http://www.mun.ca/engineering/undergrad/academicintegrity.php and
Memorial University’s Code of Student Conduct at http://www.mun.ca/student/conduct/.

INCLUSION AND EQUITY:


Students who require accommodations are encouraged to contact the Glenn Roy Blundon Centre,
http://www.mun.ca/blundon/about/index.php. The mission of the Blundon Centre is to provide and
co-ordinate programs and services that enable students with disabilities to maximize their
educational potential and to increase awareness of inclusive values among all members of the
university community.

The university experience is enriched by the diversity of viewpoints, values, and backgrounds
that each class participant possesses. In order for this course to encourage as much insightful and
comprehensive discussion among class participants as possible, there is an expectation that
dialogue will be collegial and respectful across disciplinary, cultural, and personal boundaries.

STUDENT ASSISTANCE:
Student Affairs and Services offers help and support in a variety of areas, both academic and
personal. More information can be found at www.mun.ca/student.

ADDITIONAL NOTES AND REQUIREMENTS:


• Class attendance is highly recommended for all lecturers and tutorials.
• Example problems will be discussed in the class to help you better understand concepts and
theories in the lectures and prepare for exams.
• There is one mid-term exam (20%). Mid-term date is approximate and subject to change.
The mid-term exam will take one lecture class period.
• The mid-term and final exam will be closed book; relevant formula sheets may be
provided.
• All homework assignments are due in the beginning of the class period (9.00 am).
No late assignments. Solutions will be discussed in the class and posted to D2L.
• Only simple scientific calculators are permitted in all tests and exams. Cell phones,
programmable calculators with text storage and graphics capabilities, as well as other aids
(books, notes, electronic translators and devices, etc.) are NOT allowed.
• After you get back the mid-term exam, the first thing you should do is to review the
questions with the posted solutions. Make sure you understand them first, if not, consult
with your instructor for help. If you have concerns about the grading, within two weeks
after the exam, send a written request to the instructor in email and make an appointment for
re-grading. Late requests will not be accommodated.
• There is no makeup for the mid-term exam. If you have a valid reason of conflict (for
example medical appointment) and can’t write the mid-term exam, please request and write
an email to the instructor in advance (at least 1 day before the exam). If approved, the
weight of your missed mid-term exam will be moved to your final exam. Request after an
exam will not be considered.
