(NOTE - Core course for all B.Tech. Programs. Optional for B.Sc. (Research)
Chemistry. Not available as UWE)

Credits (Lec:Tut:Lab)= 3:1:0 (3 lectures and 1 tutorial weekly)

Prerequisites: Class XII Mathematics

Overview: We will study Ordinary Differential Equations, which is a powerful tool
for solving many sciences and engineering problems. This course also covers some
basic linear algebra, which is needed for systems of ODEs.

Detailed Syllabus:

1. First order ODEs: separable, exact, linear
2. Second order ODEs: homogeneous and nonhomogeneous linear, linear
with constant coefficients, Wronskian, undetermined coefficients, variation
of parameters
3. Laplace transform: definition and inverse, linearity, shift, derivatives,
integrals, initial value problems, time shift, Dirac’s delta function and partial
fractions, convolution, differentiation and integration of transform
4. Matrices: operations, inverse, determinant, eigenvalues and eigenvectors,
diagonalization
5. Systems of ODEs: superposition principle, Wronskian, constant coefficient
systems, phase plane, critical points, stability
