On-Line Documents

The information on these pages relates to the 3rd level EG/ES 3567 course in the School of Engineering. The following links are to computer-printable copies of the lecture slides. The set of slides does not cover all slides used in the course, but covers most of the slides used in the lectures. Each set of slides is available in pdf (Adobe PDF 3) format allowing them to be viewed on a PC, Mac, or other workstation (or printed if desired). In some cases, slides are available in two format ­ as 4 slides per page, or as smaller copies with six slides per page, in these cases both sets of slides are identical.
