SFU Math 252, Vector Calculus: Documents and Homework

Course Handouts, Documents and Resources:

Course outline

Spring 2004 Lecture Notes:

Chapter 1 : Vector algebra
Chapter 2 : Space curves
Chapter 3 : Scalar and vector fields
Chapter 4 : Line, surface and volume integrals, theorems of vector calculus
Chapter 5 : Proofs of divergence and Stokes theorems
Notes on Orthogonality

Note: course material may be covered in a different order and at a different pace in this Spring 2005 semester (especially for Ch.1); we will also cover some material that was not covered in Math 252, Spring 2004.

Maple Code and Examples:

Space curves
Vector algebra and geometry of curves (using the VectorCalculus package)
Scalar fields and isotimic surfaces (fields_nf with no figures)
Parametric surface plots
Legendre, Taylor and Fourier Approximation
