The unit is designed to develop a student's foundation mathematical and statistical knowledge and skills applicable to problems in geomechanics and geohydrology.<br/>The foundation skills to be extended and applied to geomechanical and geohydrological problem solving through this unit are: the manipulation of algebraic equations; the use of scalars and vectors and trigonometry; the use of linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for simple problems of motion; and the application of integration and differentiation and their numerical approximations to solve ODE's either directly or by iterative methods.<br/>This unit also covers the application in geomechanics and geohydrology of... -- Course Website
