2024 Spring MAT 2680 Differential Equations Reitz
A differential equation is an equation that relates a function to one or more of its derivatives. β The above rather boring description does little to convey just how fundamental, widespread, and amazingly effective differential equations are in describing the world around us. β Examples: Anything in motion. Also, many things that are not in motion. Also, many additional things to which the word βmotionβ does not really apply. β Further examples: spaceships in orbit, populations growing and shrinking, a cup of coffee slowly cooling, springs bouncing, financial markets rising and falling, electrical current flowing through a circuit, ocean waves, sound waves, light waves, vibrations in musical instruments and airplane wings and suspension bridges, β More examples: Pretty much everything. Topics include methods of solving ordinary differential equations and applications to various problems. Site header created using nightcafe studio, avatar created using Adobe Express
This course handles the basic concepts of thermal energy conversion and transfer. Dual use of S.I. and English engineering units are employed in order to understand gas laws, fluid processes, first and second laws of thermodynamics, theoretical cycles, internal combustion engines, gas turbines and jet engines, refrigeration cycles and the heat pump. The course covers practical aspects of Heat transfer through radiation, conduction and convection.
