Aims |
|
· To discuss local behaviour of functions using Taylor’s theorem. · To introduce multivariable calculus including partial differentiation, gradient, extremum values and double integrals. |
Learning Outcomes |
|
use Taylor series to obtain local approximations to functions; |
|
obtain partial derivaties and use them in several applications such as, error analysis, stationary points change of variables |
|
evaluate double integrals using Cartesian and Polar Co-ordinates |
|

Power series and radius of convergence. Local behaviour of functions. Taylor’s theorem. Function of several variables (usually two), graphical depictions. Gradient and directional derivatives. Chain rule and change of variable. Error analysis. Stationary points, including constrained extrema. Multiple Integrals. Evaluation of double integrals as repeated integrals for both Cartesian and plane polar co-ordinates. |
