Exam Questions in Engineering Mathematics

Click For Summary
Engineering students are seeking online resources for exam questions related to Engineering Mathematics, particularly to compare curricula across universities. Topics of interest include integration, differentiation, series expansions, complex numbers, matrix algebra, Boolean algebra, and differential equations. First-year studies often recap A-level mathematics and introduce more advanced concepts, while second-year coursework includes Laplace transforms, partial differentiation, and Fourier series. Resources like OCR past papers are recommended for finding relevant questions. This discussion highlights the need for accessible exam materials to aid in understanding various engineering mathematics topics.

Does anyone know where I can find engineering exam questions on the web. I am trying to do a survey of various questions from different universities.
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
Just look for questions on topics that are taught in Engineering Maths. I study EE at university, so if you like I could tell you the topics we cover.
 
Would like to know which topics you cover in the EE course.
 
Ok. A level maths (or similar) is needed to study EE (in most places in england). If you type 'OCR past papers' into google, there should be some past maths papers you can look at there.

In the first year the A level syllabus was recapped. We then went on to look at:

Intergration and differentiation in more detail

Series - Maclaurin's, Taylor's, LaHopital's rule and binomial

Complex Numbers - Argand Diagrams, Polar Cordinates, exponential form etc

Matrix Algebra - Determinants, Transpose, Gauss Elemination, Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors etc

Boolen Algebra

First and second order differential equations


In the second year we have studied:

Laplace Transforms (using a table of transforms and rules, not having to intergrate much)

Partial Differentiation, multiple integrals

Fourier Series + convolution and correlation

Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
