Engineering Sciences 105 - Computational Methods for Partial Differential Equations

Institution:

Dartmouth College

Subject:

Description:

09W, 10W: 11 This course concentrates on the numerical solution of partial differential equations commonly encountered in Engineering Sciences. Finite difference and finite element methods are used to solve problems in heat flow, wave propagation, vibrations, fluid mechanics, hydrology, and solid mechanics. The course materials emphasize the systematic generation of numerical methods for elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic problems, and the analysis of their stability, accuracy, and convergence properties. Weekly computer exercises will be required to illustrate the concepts discussed in class. Prerequisite: Mathematics 23 and Engineering Sciences 91 (Mathematics 26 or Computer Science 26), or equivalents. Lynch.
