NUMERICAL METHODS FOR ENGINEERS

Catalog description

Explores numerical analysis of calculations and models in the engineering setting. Predicts numerical error. Performs root finding, numerical differentiation and integration, curve fitting, optimization, and Fourier analysis. Solves linear systems of equations and ordinary differential equations. Processes images. Engineering specific applications may include: root finding for heat transfer fin sizing, solving linear systems for electrical nodal analysis, applying differential equations solution algorithms to solve a quarter car suspension model, and curve fitting for engineering data analysis.
