Remarks
(specific information about assesment, entry requirements, etc.): |
Goals:
The course is aimed at a critical attitude towards
the reliability of numerical simulations; simple problems and analysis techniques are
used.
|
Computer
use:
Practical exercises with simple examples in order
to check convergence, stability, choice of step-length.
|
Laboratory
project(s):
Practical exercises with a commercial code (FLUENT).
|
Design
content:
The design of a correct discretization is part of
the practical work.
