Ordinary Differential
IV- Objectives:
The objective of this course is to provide students with general mathematical skills,
a working knowledge on integral calculus and its application. Also Differential
Equations which arise from many problems in oscillations of mechanical and
electrical systems, bending of beams, conduction of heat etc., and as such play a
very important role in all modern scientific and engineering studies.
