Course description |
As an advanced course of calculus, this course provides students with the foundation for vector analysis. This theory is an important tool to study geometry of curves and surfaces and to analyze various phenomena in dynamics, electromagnetism, fluid mechanics, etc. This course treats basic concepts in vector analysis so that students can use them as familiar tools to understand characteristics of scalar fields and vector fields. |
Expected Learning |
Learners who successfully complete this course will be able to: 1. Understand basic calculus of vector-valued functions, and execute it correctly 2. Understand the fundamental concept of curves, surfaces, and vector fields, and handle it with high calculation ability 3. Understand line integrals and surface integrals, and apply fundamental theorems (especially, divergence theorem and Stokes' theorem) to their calculations. |
