ENGR176 HM - Numerical Methods in Engineering

Credit(s): 3

Instructor(s): Cha

Offered: Spring, alternate years

Description: This course focuses on the application of a variety of mathematical techniques to solve real-world problems that involve modeling, mathematical and numerical analysis, and scientific computing. Concepts, calculations and the ability to apply principles to physical problems are emphasized. Ordinary differential equations, linear algebra, complex analysis, numerical methods, partial differential equations, probability and statistics, etc., are among the techniques that would be applied to problems in mechanical, electrical, chemical and civil engineering. Examples are drawn from fluid mechanics, heat transfer, vibration of structures, electromagnetics, communications and other applied topics. Program development and modification are expected as well as learning to use existing code.
