Description
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to apply advanced calculus in an engineering or related application and includes differential and integral calculus. It includes both the application of theory in simple calculations either manually or through the use of relevant software packages for more complex situations.It is suitable for paraprofessionals and technologists required to solve advanced mathematical problems in an engineering or related field, or for those pursuing technologist careers and qualifications.Individuals completing this work either already have or are developing skills and experience in mathematics covering calculus and differentials.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Identify a need for the application of calculus
- 1.1 Identify and define a problem requiring application of calculus
- 1.2 Determine data currently available for analysis
- 1.3 Identify ways of obtaining other required data
- 1.4 Determine information required from outcome
2. Prepare to solve problem by calculus
- 2.1 Determine appropriate calculus to be applied
- 2.2 Identify and gain access to appropriate computational devices
- 2.3 Collect required input data
- 2.4 Analyse collected data for suitability and completeness
- 2.5 Take appropriate action to address any deficiencies found
3. Solve problem using calculus
- 3.1 Apply appropriate technique to collected data
- 3.2 Check answer to ensure it is within the expected rational results
- 3.3 Interpret answer to determine information required by problem definition and translate the result of the statistical analysis into a form which is useable by relevant stakeholders
4. Communicate outcomes
- 4.1 Communicate outcome to relevant stakeholders by appropriate means
- 4.2 Explain outcome to stakeholders, as appropriate
