autumn 2017
SMN6201 Analytical Computations - 7.5 ECTS
Course content
The purpose of this course is to provide an introduction to the theory of complex functions applied to some 2-dim. fluid problems, heat conduction problems and elasticity problems
The syllabus of the course are topics such as
-
- complex numbers, complex functions
- Cauchy-Riemann equations
- complex integration
- Taylor and Laurent series
- Fractals, residue theory
- Max.-mod. Principle
- Potential Theory
- Bernoulli's law
- 2-dim. fluid problems and heat conduction
- bi-harmonic equation
- 2D elasticity theory
Large parts of the course will be conducted using video lectures by using the PC. The course is therefore highly suitable for students who choose to take a decentralized education and who are unable to stay at Narvik in the whole course period.
For more information, see the course homepage which you can access through Its Learning when you are registered for the course.

Mandatory tasks:
At the start of the written exam, the students bring with them a predefined report in two paper copies.
This report can be used by the students during the written exam, and the report will count as part of the exam (there will be no separate grade for the report). The whole material, also the report, has to be delivered at the end of the exam.
Examination and report will form the basis of the overall assessment.
Exam:
3 hour written exam
Access to the continuation exam, if it is held, requires that the professor must approve the report within 1 month after the regular examination is held. Remember to take care of the report, since it has to be delivered on a possible continuation exam. Grading will be done by using A-F grading scale, F is Fail. There will be no separate grade for the report.
