In this course, we will consider a wide variety of physical problems
and the mathematical models used to analyze them. We will mostly
consider systems which can be modelled using differential and partial
differential equations. Since there is no text for this course, I
will scan in my notes and make them available on the course web page.
There will be one in class midterm on Friday February 16. There
will also be homework assignments given out approximately every 2
weeks.
