Aim: To introduce the students to advanced mathematical modelling through the solution of a project problem from engineering or physics. |
Contents: Using the relevant chapters in one of the textbooks from the DTU course modules 01141 or 01246 or 01248 the students are in groups asked to solve one problem. Each problem will introduce the students to some of the key elements in the mathematical modelling process: a) formulation of a mathematical model of an engineering / physical problem and b) derivation of a mathematical solution procedure based on advanced methods from applied mathematics c) computer implementation of the solution procedure as well as analysis of the results. |
