Mathematical Analysis II

Recommended Prerequisites

Mathematical Analysis I and Linear Algebra and Analytic Geometry.   

Teaching Methods

The teaching in this course assumes two formats: theoretical and example classes. During a theoretical class teaching is mostly expository. During an example class teaching consists of problem solving by the students under the guidance of the lecturer. A strong interaction between notions and their practical application is emphasized. In this task, the visualization and the analysis of concrete examples takes on a central role and prepares the way for the abstract definitions. Tutorial support is available to students to help them on the tasks assigned by the lecturers.

Learning Outcomes

The student who successfully completes this course will be able to:

1. Detect non-continuous real functions of two variables at a given point;

2. Compute the directions of greatest growth of a real function of two variables;

3. Solve a constrained extrema problem;           

4. Compute areas and volumes, as well as the center of mass of a solid (with arbitrary density function), using double and triple integrals;

5. Compute areas and lengths of curves in space using line and surface integrals;            

6. Solve problems involving the connections between the types of integrals studied (double, triple, line and surface integrals);

7. Solve problems involving applications of integration to mathematical modelling.
