Numerical Solution of Partial Differential Equations
Students program numerical solvers for elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations and learn to estimate their errors and stability and evaluate their robustness, performance and portability. Students learn to use tools for the visualization of scientific data. Finally, students use an integrated software package (for example, COMSOL, Multiphysics) to implement a numerical solver for a more complex system. (lec 3) cr 3.
