Summary

 

Computational Partial Differential Equations I  - M5N10

Aims

The module will introduce a variety of computational approaches for solving partial differential equations, focusing mostly on finite difference methods, but also touching on finite volume and spectral methods. Students will gain experience implementing the methods and writing/modifying short programs in Matlab or other programming language of their choice. Applications will be drawn from problems arising in Mathematical Biology, Fluid Dynamics, etc. At the end of the module, students should be able to solve research-level problems by combining various techniques.
