modules

The complexity of mathematical and computational models describing most natural and man-made systems necessitates modern numerical methods and analysis of computer simulations. In this module you will develop computational modelling and simulation skills within a context of essential, high-value applications, using state-of-the-art scientific computing software. The module will be problem focussed, taking real-world examples, and using these to inform your understanding and appreciation of the underlying modelling and simulation methods. The module will draw from a range of topics: large partial differential equation-based modelling of flows and fields; computer-aided systems analysis; stochastic systems; and approaches to modelling the environment and natural systems. You will communicate your models and findings to your peers and for assessment through reports, presentations and other digital media.
