- Abstract:
Introduction to computational techniques for the simulation of a large variety of engineering and engineered systems. Applications drawn from aerospace, mechanical, electrical, and chemical engineering, materials science, and operations research. Topics: mathematical formulations; network problems; sparse direct and iterative matrix solution techniques; Newton methods for nonlinear problems; discretization methods for ordinary and partial differential equations; methods for the solution of integral equations; model-order reduction; and Monte Carlo techniques. An introduction to computational techniques for the simulation of a large variety of engineering and physical systems. Applications are drawn from aerospace, mechanical, electrical, chemical and biological engineering, and materials science. Topics include: mathematical formulations; network problems; sparse direct and iterative matrix solution techniques; Newton methods for nonlinear problems; discretization methods for ordinary, time-periodic and partial differential equations, fast methods for partial differential and integral equations, techniques for dynamical system model reduction and approaches for molecular dynamics.
