1. MATH 207

2. WHY CALCULUS?
The History Of Calculus

3. Calculus in Engineering
Civil Engineering
For example, in hydraulic systems, basic fluid mechanics equations require calculus.
Structural Engineering
For example, structural analysis relating to seismic design requires calculus. Calculations of bearing capacity and shear strength of soil are done using calculus, as is the determination of lateral earth pressure and slope stability in complex situations.
Electrical Engineering
Computing voltages in electronic circuits requires the use of calculus differential equations

4. Mechanical engineering
Many examples! Calculus is used for:
Evaluating surface areas of complex objects
Computing torques and forces
Analyzing fluid flow in hydraulic systems …
Aerospace Engineering
For example,
computing thrust of rockets that function in stages,
modeling gravitational effects over time and space.
Many other Engineering fields: Nuclear Engineering, Material Science, etc…

7. Calculus is everywhere!
Calculus is also used in many more areas:
Architecture
Acoustics
Politics
Optics
Music
Sports
Arts …
Calculus is everywhere!

20. Definition of a Function

23. It’s helpful to think of a function as a machine:
The input is the independent variable,
The output is the dependent variable.

24. Four Ways to Represent a Function
verbally (by a description in words)
numerically (by a table of values)
visually (by a graph)
algebraically (by an explicit formula)

25. Verbally (with words) or With Diagrams:

26. Numerically: using Tables -

27. Visually: using Graphs -

28. Algebraically: using Formulas – There are several Categories of Functions:

29. The most common method for visualizing a function is its graph
The most common method for visualizing a function is its graph. If f is a function with domain D, then its graph is the set of ordered pairs:
{(x, f (x)) | x  D}

30. Theorem: Vertical Line Test
A set of points in the xy - plane is the graph of a function if and only if a vertical line intersects the graph in at most one point.

33. Finding the Domain of a Function

34. Piecewise-defined Functions:
Example:

35. A common Piecewise Defined Function: The absolute value function: f (x) = |x|
x if x  0
f(x) = |x| =
–x if x < 0

36. Symmetry of a Function (Odd or Even)
If a function f satisfies f (–x) = f (x) for every number x in its domain, then f is called an even function.
The graph of an even function is
symmetric with respect to the y-axis
If f satisfies f (–x) = –f (x) for every number x in its domain, then f is called an odd function.
The graph of an odd function is symmetric
about the origin
An even function

39. Increasing and Decreasing Functions
Where is the function increasing?

40. Where is the function decreasing?

41. Where is the function constant?

43. Local Maxima and Minima

44. Local Min

45. Average rate of change of a Function

46. from 0 to 1
