SCHOOL OF APPLIED MATHEMATICS.

Professor Thornton.

Required for Admission to the Work of the School: The General
Entrance Examination, and Course 1A in the School of Mathematics
or its equivalent constitute the minimum of training needed
for entrance on the work below.

Primarily for Undergraduates.

Course 1B: General Mechanics: Mathematics 1A prerequisite.
This course, which comprises the work in Mechanics for the B. A. elective,
is of a fundamental character. Elementary mathematical methods are
employed, but no student is prepared to begin it who has not acquired a
sound working knowledge of Algebra, Geometry, and Plane Trigonometry,
with the rudiments of Analytical Geometry: Course 2B in Pure Mathematics
must also be taken parallel with this course, unless the student
already possesses a fair knowledge of the Infinitesimal Calculus. The work
is distributed over the three terms of the session, as follows:

  • First Term—General Introduction to Mechanics.

  • Second Term—Statics, graphical and analytical.

  • Third Term—Elementary Hydrostatics.

For Undergraduates and Graduates.

Course 2C: Analytical Mechanics: Mathematics 2B and Course
1B prerequisite.
—This course embraces the work in Mechanics for the
M. A. elective. The distribution of the work over the three terms of the
session is as follows:

  • First Term—Dynamics of a Particle.

  • Second Term—Statics, and Plane Kinematics.

  • Third Term—Dynamics of a Rigid Body.

For Graduates Only.

Course 3D: Mixed Mathematics: Mathematics 3C and Course 2C
prerequisite.
—This course represents graduate work for the Ph. D. degree.

Only graduates in the School of Pure Mathematics or students with
equivalent preparation will be admitted to it. The course in Analytical
Mechanics is a necessary preliminary. The work is distributed as follows,
and is given mainly by lectures:

  • A. Theory of Attraction and the Potential.

  • B. General Principles of Theoretical Dynamics.

  • C. Dynamics of Material Systems.

  • D. Theory of Elasticity.

  • E. Hydrodynamics.

  • F. Higher Geodesy.

The six courses are intended to cover two years of graduate work.
