What will I learn?
This Calculus 1 Course employs a realistic temperature-time model to develop essential skills in limits, continuity, differentiation, and optimisation for dynamic systems. You will interpret derivatives graphically, calculate and classify critical points, and examine peak temperature using analytical and numerical approaches. Learn to evaluate safety in relation to thermal constraints, present findings clearly, and modify model parameters to inform robust engineering choices.
