AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

A complex of knowledge which allows to employ the main mathematical tools for numerical calculation, the treatment and the analysis of the experimental data, the interpretation and the formulation of models in the mathematical-physical key.

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the course the student will know the numerical methods for approximation, differentiation and integration of functions, the solution of ordinary differential equations systems, the singular values decomposition of matrices. He/she will also know the variational methods and their application to modeling.
