| Course Description | This course serves as an introduction to how engineers typically solve real world and complex problems. In many cases mathematical or analytical solutions are not available and numerical or computer methods must be used. This course will introduce this important area and provide training in its fundamental components. These include: introduction to computer theory and computing environments; development of programming skills in Fortran 90/95, Visual Basic in Excel (VBA) and Matlab; development of programs that are well-structured and can be easily maintained; introduction to probability and statistics and Monte Carlo simulation techniques; introduction to numerical methods in engineering, including: approximations and errors; solving large sets of linear algebraic equations; roots of equations; numerical differentiation and integration; solution of ordinary differential equations. |
