Semester 1.

  • I will be conducting problems classes in 4E3.40 on Tuesdays at 12.15. Mr Aminreza Noghrehabadi will be assisting me.

    Generalities:

  • The course will be assessed by examination (80%) and coursework (20%). I will be providing five pieces of coursework, which correspond to the first five sections of the course.
  • Solutions to the exercises in the course notes will eventually appear here.

    Errors in lecture notes

  • It is inevitable that some typos go undetected even for years. If you find any, please let me know. I will then email everyone and place the information here.

    Late work
    Please note that the University's rules are that the maximum mark given to late coursework work is 40%, and that zero is given to work over 5 days late. Mitigating circumstances need to passed to both your personal tutor and me as soon as possible should there be any possibility of being late. Go to the department office for the appropriate paperwork.

    Calculators
    The Faculty's rule is that the Sharp EL520V is the designated calculator for all examinations. However, please note that the examination for Semester 1 requires no calculators.

    Old exam papers

    Note that most of these exam papers are subject to the old rubric, namely 3 from 5. The rubric now is: full marks for 9 correct out of 12, but credit will be given for everything submitted up to a maximum of 100 percent.

    Please note that this is the first time for some years where Laplace Transforms form part of the syllabus. You will find some exam questions on Laplace Transforms in the Semester 1 papers for 1998/99, 1999/2000 and 2000/01. In the exam you are likely to be asked to prove some of the standard results, such as the LT of a derivative and/or a function and/or a shift theorem. It is worth getting these well-practiced.
