MATH 315 - Advanced Topics in Applied Math Semester Offered: Fall
1 unit(s)
Using informal, but careful, mathematical approaches we analyze nonlinear equations that arise from a wide variety of applied fields. Methods developed include analytical approaches as well as a geometric understanding of the underlying dynamics. We move from understanding 1-dimensional nonlinear flow to 2-D dynamics in the phase plane. Atop of a typical single variable calculus class, we are employing skills such as function sketching, Taylor series expansions, partial derivatives, Jacobian matrix, divergence theorem, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors.
