General description Nesta asignatura ampliaranse os conceptos matemáticos estudados nos graos de enxeñería. Así, traballarase con curvas e superficies, comprendendo a súa xeometría e os elementos que a describen xunto coas ferramentas que usamos habitualmente para estudialas. Introduciranse conceptos básicos de cálculo tensorial e a súa aplicación na formulación e estudo de ecuacións en derivadas parciais que aparecen na física e na enxeñería, con especial atención á mecánica de medios continuos.

Methodologies
Methodologies Description
Guest lecture / keynote speech Oral presentation complemented with the use of audiovisual media and the introduction of some questions to the students, in order to transmit knowledge and provide learning
Problem solving Technique of group work which purpose is the in-depth study of a subject. It involves discussion, participaction, edocuments elaboration and the conclussion reached by all the components of the seminar.
Supervised projects Methodology designed to promote authonomous learning of the students, always under the teacher's guide. It is a technique based on the assumption by the students of the responsability of their learning.
This learning technique is based in two basic elements: the authonomous learning and the continous monitoring of this learning by the teachers.
Objective test Written test to asses the obtained competencies. It is an instruments of meassure, rigorously developed, that allows to evaluate knowledges, capacities, skills, performances, aptitudes, attitudes, etc.

Description
Along the course several works will be proposed to the students, and that will allow them, in case of obtaining a possitive evaluation, to pass the subject.

Assessment
Methodologies Competencies Description Qualification
Objective test B1 B2 B4 B5 B6 At the end of the course, these students that have not done the proposed works or that want to obtain a better qualification, will do a written exam in the data fixed by the school. 50
Supervised projects B2 B4 B5 B6 Students who wish to, can choose a topic from among those proposed by the teachers of the subject. They will do a work on this subject to deepen their concepts and techniques, and that they will have to expose later. This work will be qualified and will allow to pass the subject. 50
 
Assessment comments

The works will be corrected and attending to this corrections students will be qualified. If a student does not present the proposed work or if he/she wants to obtain a better qualifications, he/she will be able to give up the obtained qualification and do the final exam in the 1st or the 2nd opportunity.

In order to get a sustainable neighbourhood and attain the aim of action number 5: “Docencia e investigación saudábel e sustentábel ambiental e social” of the  "Plan de Acción Green Campus Ferrol", the homework of this course will attend to the following:

              •  Preferably, virtual homework will be used, when printing is not required.

              •  In the case that paper is needed, then:

                  -     No plastic materials will be used.

                 -      Printing will be done both sides.

                 -      Recycled paper will be used as possible.

         In general, a sustainable use of natural resources will be done. Moreover, ethic principles related to sustainability will be followed.
