401-0663-00L | Numerical Methods for CSE ![]() | 7 credits | 4V + 2U | R. Hiptmair | |
Abstract | The course gives an introduction into fundamental techniques and algorithms of numerical mathematics which play a central role in numerical simulations in science and technology. The course focuses on fundamental ideas and algorithmic aspects of numerical methods. The exercises involve actual implementation of numerical methods in C++. | ||||
Objective | * Knowledge of the fundamental algorithms in numerical mathematics * Knowledge of the essential terms in numerical mathematics and the techniques used for the analysis of numerical algorithms * Ability to choose the appropriate numerical method for concrete problems * Ability to interpret numerical results * Ability to implement numerical algorithms afficiently | ||||
Content | 1. Direct Methods for linear systems of equations 2. Least Squares Techniques 3. Data Interpolation and Fitting 4. Filtering Algorithms 8. Approximation of Functions 9. Numerical Quadrature 10. Iterative Methods for non-linear systems of equations 11. Single Step Methods for ODEs 12. Stiff Integrators | ||||
Lecture notes | Lecture materials (PDF documents and codes) will be made available to participants: Lecture document: https://people.math.ethz.ch/~grsam/HS16/NumCSE/NumCSE16.pdf Lecture Git repository: https://gitlab.math.ethz.ch/NumCSE/NumCSE Tablet classroom notes: http://www.sam.math.ethz.ch/~grsam/HS16/NumCSE/NCSE16_Notes/ Lecture recording: http://www.video.ethz.ch/lectures/d-math/2016/autumn/401-0663-00L.html Homework problems: https://people.math.ethz.ch/~grsam/HS16/NumCSE/NCSEProblems.pdf | ||||
