Description

A practical overview of advanced computational methods currently used in physics research using kinetic, fluid, and spectral approaches, as well as other practical applications that physics researchers may encounter, such as high-performance computing and grid construction. The course will focus on hands-on experience with coding the algorithms of finite differences, finite volume, finite elements, Monte Carlo, particle in cell, and spectral methods, and will provide the students with tools to develop and use scientific numerical models.

Prerequisites

MATH.2310 Calculus III, and MATH.2340 Differential Equations, and MATH.3810 Math Physics I, and MECH.3610 Math Methods ME.
