CEE 6000 - [Numerical Methods for Engineers]


     
Fall. Next offered 2016-2017. 3 credits.

P. J. Diamessis.

The primary focus is algorithm implementation within the context of engineering applications (spanning fluid and solid/fracture mechanics and beyond). Student are assigned five projects containing sub-problems of increasing complexity and relevance to application. Topics include sources of error and error propagation, eigenvalue/eigenvector computation, solution of linear systems via direct or iterative methods and issues of parallel implementation, least squares approximation of lab/simulation data, solution of non-linear equations, interpolation in one and two dimensions, fast Fourier transforms (serial vs. parallel) and wavelets.
