Saturdays, 9:00 AM – 12:00 Noon/ 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM (lec); A103-104

Course Description: Application of Fourier series, special functions and integral transforms to the
solution of boundary and initial value problems in engineering.

Prerequisite: ES 21 or equivalent

Course Objectives: At the end of this course, the students should be able to properly apply the
different solutions to ordinary and partial differential equations in various engineering systems.

FOURTH LONG EXAMINATION

Grading System:

1. Punctual attendance is required. Attendance is checked on 9:15 a.m./1:15 p.m. and any
student not present by that time will be marked absent. A total of 6 absences will empower
 the teacher to force drop a student from his class. There will be no distinction made between
excused and unexcused absences.
2. Any missed exam will be given a grade of ZERO and no excuse will be accepted for missing an
exam.
3. During the exam, use only 8.5” by 11” bond paper and pens with BLACK or BLUE ink. Write
your NAME and SECTION on the upper right hand corner of each page. Also write your name
and numerals I, II and III at the back of the last page.
4. The Pre-Finals class standing is computed as the average of the four exams. Submission of
homework is optional and the average of homework scores will be used to replace the lowest
exam score.
5. Complaints will be entertained for a period of one week after the exam result has been
returned.
6. A student may be exempted from taking the final examination provided his Pre-Finals class
standing is 70 or higher and he has no exam score that is less than 60 (i.e. all his exam
scores are passing). For the student who is exempted, his Pre-Finals class standing is his
final grade.
7. The final grade of the student who has taken will be computed based on 2/3 whichever is
higher the final exam or the Pre-Finals class standing and 1/3 whichever is lower of the two.
8. The final grade corresponding to a student’s general weighted average is given by the table
below :

5.00 3.00 2.75 2.50 2.25 2.00 1.75 1.50 1.25 1.00
0-59 50-54 55-59 60-64 65-69 70-75 76-81 82-87 88-93 94-100

9. Cheating in any form will be penalized with a grade of 5.0 and possible expulsion from the
University.
