Purpose of class

The purpose is to acquire numerical analysis and simulation techniques using programming and tools.

Course description

Numerical analysis/simulation technology using computers is applied in a wide range of fields. Furthermore, in modern times, the importance of simulation technology that can reduce experiment costs is increasing due to the increasing complexity of phenomena handled by science and technology and the increasing performance of computers that can analyze them. In this class, you will learn the basics of numerical analysis by actually doing programming. Furthermore, students will create programs to simulate physical phenomena and understand how equations representing phenomena are handled on computers. In addition, students will use advanced simulation tools to acquire simulation analysis techniques necessary for cutting-edge research.

Goals and objectives

To be able to explain the relationship between numerical analysis and programming
To be able to create a basic numerical analysis program
To be able to create a program for basic physical phenomena
To be able to analysis using simulation tools
