Suoritusvaatimukset

The total mark is determined based on a final exam, practical work assignments, and the student's activity in exercise classes and group projects:
1) Lectures. There will be only 7 double lectures. They are intended to give an introduction to the concepts and methods used in analytical mechanics. First period, Monday 10-12 at Sg312. Final exam 40% of the points to determine the grade.

2) Assignment sessions. There are 13 assignment sessions, for practicing problem solving techniques, going through central examples of Lagrange and Hamilton mechanics, as well as nonlinear dynamics and chaos theory. In addition, there will be numerical assignments. Assignments 50%

3) As the assignments may be sometimes like small projects, the 13 weekly exercises are meant for shorter problems and applications of theory. Exercises 10%
