This video is a favorite on Colombo; Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte

soso mia is langweilig

[agapitoflores001]

It doesn't matter when the video was uploaded. It is equally useful as recent video uploads.

[jimztar]

All lecturers should be forced to watch Arthur Mattuck's lectures.

[MrErictan89]

I am doing process control, and i wish that mit would upload lectures on process control

[bboywaters]

this guy is simply the best

[fingerboy18]

Using the Laplace transform is good if you are strong in Algebra. There is absolutely no Calculus involved after some basic setup. You could use Variation of Parameters or Undetermined Coefficients to find most solutions, but they are heavy with Calculus!

[Liaomiao]

when he said at the end if you're clever you can use L'hopital's rule once did he mean you put a ln in front of both top and bottom and then use L'Hopitals?

[Liaomiao]

Anyone know of a set of lectures/vids talking about power series and other series in general? I feel like i'm lacking a bit of knowledge in that area.

@Liaomiao The following isn't bad if ever: Power Series/Euler's Great Formula | MIT Highlights of Calculus

[tekerirem]

now that I found this great profesor, I dont have to addend the classes of my stupid profesora!

[sekleng]

4 guys got differentiated



[williamjtaylor]

Without this guy, i would be failing my degree, no question!

[highaerials36]

That was a beautiful proof and derivation of the Laplace transform. My diff eq 1 professor sucked at explaining anything, this guy is GOOD.

[lovericecake]

I wonder how many boards up there are in total? XD

[pierre45a]

WOW from rote learning I thought I'd take a look online to see if there were concrete explanations for the Laplace transform. Blown away. Well done professor. How simple does he make it sound?!

[TheMemorious]

Got to love Professor Mattuck, even when he tries to run you over in his bicycle.

[rickyoffshantos1989]

Awesome explanation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everything makes sense now

[Hack3r91]

I can't find Lec 18...

[rsplenum]

Just simply Awesome

[LiquidOX2H2]

65 guys who like this, 4 who DIDN'T understand :D

[duscen]

Anyone know how to do the Le' Hospital of x^n / e^x in just one step?

[WildChildftw]

@duscen

I would also want to know that.

[anthonyrajabala]

This is a great lecture and Amazing !!! He is the best mathematician

[footballover01]

Respect to you Professor, amazing, amazing lecturer

[ravaabyee]

this is beautiful

[63266]

He teaches amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiing.

I LOVE HIM

Thanx, thanx , thanx , thanx, thanx

[shinim3gami]

OMG. I understand calculus for once....and I'm in my third year of engineering.... O.O

[1988dchapman]

@shinim3gami This comment scares me.

[shinim3gami]

@1988dchapman

Don't worry. I won't be designing any collapsing buildings or bridges. Made the career change and applied to MD last year :p

[1988dchapman]

"Now, if I've done my work correctly, youshould all be saying, 'Oh, is that all?' But, I know you aren't." -- You've done your work correctly. :-)

[mremile72]

This guy is a first class mathematician, respect to Prof. Arthur Mattuck =)

[grimshawr]

I always wondered why Lapalace Transforms go from 0 to infinity instead of being a proper integral.

[justjustgord]

Absolutely superb.. If I heard this when I was 16 I would have understood it and had no problems.

Explaining it by taking power series and gradually refining it is just beautifully simple - you could never forget it.

great teacher - rating 10/5 !

[Bloodsaberxy]

so you rated him 2 huh...

i agree though, great teacher and nicely done lecture

[JLack84]

Differential Equations was one of my favorite math classes. Interestingly enough, here at the University of Georgia the only prerequisite for it is integral calculus however I think that to fully understand everything that's going on one needs to have a good understanding of linear algebra and sequences & series as well because they're both sometimes used intermittently with diff. eq. Nonetheless, Dr. Mattuck does such an exceptional job explaining the material that this may not be needed.

[MahlerTitan]

interestingly, my university lists DE as a pre-requisite for taking Linear Algebra.

[munirnajm700]

sehr gut erklärt ! guter Mathematiker !

[num3ric]

His presentation is so clear! If only my Real Analysis prof was like that...

[themips]

This guy is brilliant. He presents all in an attractive manner.

[nemo1620]

I liked the analogy between Taylor series and Laplace transforms. I'd not heard it before.

[Mustardo2]

Sehr gut, sehr gut!
