Homework

I expect you to hand in at least two problems each week. These problems will give partial credit in the examination. Hand in one set of exercises every Monday following the plan of the lectures.

I will also appreciate if you report mistakes and misprints in the textbook and make suggestions for improvement, especially new exercises.

Written exam: Friday October 25, 2002, 8.45-12.45 in M (Mechanical Engineering building).

Old exam: 981023 solutions

Older exams: 901101 solutions, 921104 solutions, 931104 solutions, 940108
These exams were written for another course which only covered time-dependent problems.
