Electrical Engineering Analysis

Vector analysis, complex functions, and linear algebra with applications to electrical
engineering problems. Prerequisites: Mathematics 2J and 3D. Formerly ECE180. (Design
units: 0)
Textbook

Sons, Inc., 2011. (Important note: Electronic version cannot be used in
examinations which will be open books. The reason is that PCs are prohibited in
examinations. Paper copy of electronic version is allowed in the examinations).

Course Objectives:
Students are able to formulate and analyze problems of engineering mathematics which
involves differential and integral calculus, vector calculus, complex variables and
functions, and linear algebra.
Course Outcomes:
Students will be able to: (a) understand line, surface, and volume integral calculus; (b)
understand and apply gradient, curl, and divergence operators; (c) understand the basics
of a function of a complex variable and integration in a complex plane; (d) understand and
solve eigenvalue problems in a matrix; (e) solve a system of linear differential equations.

Examinations

Three midterm and one final examinations will be given so that you have more chances to
improve yourselves. Each examination covers a portion of the contents of the course. All
examinations are open books, notes, HWs, and HW solutions. Solution manual is not
allowed. IPads, PCs, and cell phones are all prohibited in the examinations. Electronic
version of textbook cannot be used either. So, if you want to have the textbook available
during the examination, you will need to bring a paper version of the textbook. You cannot
bring your Ipads or PCs to the examination just for the purpose of reading the electronic
textbook. The reason is that, in proctoring, I have no way to judge whether a student is
using the PC just to read the textbook or to solve problems using stored equations or
programs. For calculation, you will need a regular scientific calculator. Believe me, we are
not going back to the Stone Age. In elementary school, a calculator is not even allowed.
Why wont the teachers let the students use calculators? At 3rd grade, some students are
struggling with understanding why 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6. Do you think you can explain this to a
3rd grader? Would a calculator or a PC help? To do well in examinations, you must do
the HW problems yourself without discussing with your peers and without looking at the
solutions. Do not expect the examination problems to be the same as the HWs or as the
examples in the book.
