I am emailing a link of this to everyone on the class list every Friday afternoon. If you are not receiving these emails or want to have them sent to another email address feel free to email me at jpmccarthymaths@gmail.ie and I will add you to the mailing list.

Week 13

We will have a lecture/tutorial on Tuesday 11 December from 18:00. We have to finish off multiple integration. I hope to do this in one hour. We will decide as a group when to have our break.

The different things I can do for the tutorial:

  1. Talk about exam layout
  2. Answer questions
  3. Do an exam paper
  4. Help one-to-one

I can give the exam layout here — which is more streamlined than other years:

Answer four questions: each worth the same marks.

1. Multiple Topics Question

(a) Interpolation (b) Linear Algebra (c) Laplace Methods

2. Interpolation

Finite Difference Methods, Least Squares, Lagrangian Interpolation

3. Linear Algebra

Gaussian Elimination with and without partial pivoting, Cramer’s Rule, Jacobi’s Method, Gauss-Siedel Method

4. Laplace Methods

Three differential equations

5.  Multiple Integration

line integrals, double integrals with applications including second moment of area, triple integrals.

I would prefer to answer questions on the board from people until there are no more.

If there are no questions I will start going through Summer 2010 — which I will have printed out for ye.

If we finish this (doubtful), I will start helping one-to-one.
