CME 102 ― Ordinary Differential Equations for Engineers
My twin brother Afshine and I created this set of cheatsheets when I was a TA for Stanford's CME 102 class in Spring 2018. They can (hopefully!) be useful to all future students taking this course as well as to anyone else interested in learning the fundamentals of Ordinary Differential Equations.
Cheatsheet
First-order ODEs
- • Direction field method, separation of variables, equilibrium
- • Linear first-order technique, system of linear ODEs
- • Existence and uniqueness, initial value numerical methods
Mathematical tools
Linear Algebra
- • Vector, matrix and general operations
- • Characteristic equation, determinant, eigenvector/eigenvalue
- • Partial fractions and main formulas
