Spring School on the Introduction on Numerical Modelling of Differential Equations

Overview

This block course is devoted to an introduction to numerical modeling with a focus on computational modeling of differential equations. The aim is to give a flavor of scientific computing; namely mathematical modeling of physical and technical processes, development and analysis of numerical algorithms, and their implementation on a computer. The pre-course in the first week gives an introduction to Scientific Computing in general and to scientific programming in C++. In the second week numerical methods for ordinary and partial differential equations are introduced. All classes are supplemented with practical exercises to substantiate the theoretical and algorithmic advancements
