Course detail
Selected Parts from Mathematics for Engineers
FEKT-MPC-VPAAcad. year: 2023/2024
The aim of this course is to introduce the basics of calculation of local, constrained and absolute extrema of functions of several variables, double and triple inegrals, line and surface integrals in a scalar-valued field and a vector-valued field including their physical applications. In the field of multiple integrals , main attention is paid to calculations of multiple integrals on elementary regions and utilization of polar, cylindrical and sferical coordinates, calculalations of a potential of vector-valued field and application of integral theorems.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Written examination is evaluated by maximum 70 points. It consist of seven tasks (one from extrema of functions of several variables (10 points), two from multiple integrals (2 X 10 points), two from line integrals (2 x 10 points) and two from surface integrals (2 x 10 points)).
The content and forms of instruction in the evaluated course are specified by a regulation issued by the lecturer responsible for the course and updated for every academic year
Aims
Students completing this course should be able to:
- calculate local, constrained and absolute extrema of functions of several variables.
- calculate multiple integrals on elementary regions.
- transform integrals into polar, cylindrical and sferical coordinates.
- calculate line and surface integrals in scalar-valued and vector-valued fields.
- apply integral theorems in the field theory.
