This is the first time I find the ME3122 Heat Transfer lecturer funny.
Do you know l'Hôpital's rule?

hahaha.. tat's wad i learnt in Maths 1A here.. now like no use already..

actually.. i'm questioning the need of maths in my course.. wad i do for structural is just take formula.. sub in numbers.. and voila.. tat's the answer..

tat's like super basic maths.. need chim chim maths like L'Hopital? Laplace transform, D'Alembert solution, PDE and wad not meh?

i think when you input parameters, you need the maths.

hmm.. like wad kind?

so far.. only water engineering require the Laplace transform and ODEs..

i do more of structures.. and nothing's related to those.. hmm...

how about forced vibration?
or function for forces?

eh.. all done by computer..

ours.. like i said.. is basic maths..

the rest of the things.. are calculated by computer.. :P
