Electrotechnology EE3006

Prerequisites

Applied Mathematics with Electrotechnology and Mathematics I

Course Objectives

Students will:

• Gain knowledge of: Fourier series - definitions and concepts.
• Be able to develop functions in Fourier series.
• Gain knowledge of definitions and concepts relating to functions of several variables.
• Be able to use the theory concerning functions of several variables as a basis for amongst other things miscalculations.
• Be able to calculate alternating current with passive linear components.
• Develop skills in using simulation tools.

Learning Methods

Lectures, laboratory group work, simulation of circuitry, written exercises. The software programme Maple is used in mathematics.

Course Description

• Fourier series: Periodic functions; Fourier sinus series and Fourier cosine series; half-periodic lengths.
• Functions of several variables: Functions with two or more variables; partial derivative functions; differentials and final differences; and miscalculations.
• Serial and parallel connected alternating current circuits.
• Network analyses.
• Resonance circuits.
• Passive filters.
• Three-phase systems.

Assessment Methods

40% continuous assessment, 60% written final examination.
