EGGN 460 - Numerical Methods For Engineers

Institution:

Colorado School of Mines

Subject:

Description:

Introduction to the use of numerical methods in the solution of problems encountered in engineering analysis and design, e.g. linear simultaneous equations (e.g. analysis of elastic materials, steady heat flow); roots of nonlinear equations (e.g. vibration problems, open channel flow); eigen-value problems (e.g. natural frequencies, buckling and elastic stability); curve fitting and differentiation (e.g. interpretation of experimental data, estimation of gradients); integration (e.g. summation of pressure distributions, finite element properties, local averaging ); ordinary differential equations (e.g. forced vibrations, beam bending) All course participants will receive source code consisting of a suite of numerical methods programs. Prerequisite: CSCI260 or 261, MATH225, EGGN320. 3 hours lecture; 3 semester hours.
