Outline and Purpose of the Course The aim of this class is to learn the fundamental mathematics commonly used in Chemical Process Engineering, Chemical System Engineering, such as ordinary differential equations, Laplace transformation, methods to solve differential equations by using Laplace transformation, and vector analysis. The style of the class is mainly lecture style.
Course Goals To attain the mathematical knowledge and skill how to calculate a line, surface and volume integrals, and to calculate differentiations
of scalar and vector fields, and to solve ordinal differential equations by using Laplace transformations.
Schedule and Contents Vector Analysis, (7-times)
We learn the following items:
1. Vector Analysis (including differentiation of vectors)
2. Integration of vectors Integral Theorem (Gauss divergence Theorem, Stokes Theorem)

Ordinary differential Equation, (4-times)
We learn that various physical phenomena seen in our daily life can be described by ordinary differential equations.
As a method to solve 1st and 2nd order ordinary differential equation, the following methods will be learned :
1. Method of separation of variables
2. Method of variation of parameters

Laplace Transformation, (3-times)
After learning the historical background and the discovery of Laplace transformation,
we learn how to solve ordinal differential equations and integral equations by using Laplace transformation,
and also learn applications of Laplace transformation to definite integration.

Confirmation of the level of attainment, (1-time)
Confirmation of the level of attainment
Comments on the term-end Exam
Evaluation Methods and Policy Grade will be evaluated by (i) the examination at the end of semester and (ii) homework during semester.
Course Requirements Basic knowledge on differentiation, integral, matrix operations
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) After each class of vector analysis, homework is given to students, and their solution will be shown at the class in two weeks.
It is highly recommended that students solve them before the class.
