Course objectives
The course gives a survey of methods for numerical solving of differential equations (ordinary and partial).
(1) Students will acquire the most important methods for solving initial-value and boundary-value problems for ordinary differential equations and for solving the basic partial differential equations.
(2) At the end of this course, students will be able to compare the methods not only from the theoretical point of view, but they will understand them from the point of stability, efficiency, etc.
(3) can apply some methods.
Learning outcomes
Student will be able to:
- design a suitable method for the numerical solution of the differential equation
- Implement the method using proprietary software
