Aims

Understand and know how to integrate elementary functions, understand some applications of the definite integral (length of a curve, volume and surface area of a rotational body, static momentums and centre of gravity). Students should acquaint themselves with the basic concepts of calculus of two and more-functions. They should be able to calculate partial derivatives, acquaint themselves with the concept of an implicit function. To understand the geometric interpretation of the total differential of a function. Learn how to find local and global minima and maxima of two-functions. To learn about the directional derivative and its calculation.
Students will achieve the subject's objectives. They will get an understanding of the basics of integral calculus of functions of one variable, know how to integrate elementary functions and apply these (length of a curve, volume and surface area of a rotational body, static momentums and centre of gravity). Students will acquaint themselves with the basic concepts of the calculus of functions of two and more variables. They will be able to calculate partial derivatives of functions of several variables. They will get an understanding of the total differential of a function and its geometrical meaning. They will also learn how to find local and global minima and maxima of two-functions. They will get acquainted with directional derivatives of functions of several variables and their calculation.
