About the course
Aim
The course is intended to bridge between basic mathematic courses and courses within science and technology. Students will aim to improve their ability in using mathematical results and computational software, as MATLAB, to study, analyse, and to some degree, solve realistic problems from applications. After the course, the student should be able to:
- write and use mathematical models for some problems in information technology and physics applications;
- reflect over the benefits and restrictions of a mathematical model;
- use MATLAB as a natural tool for solving computational problems, including: work with matrices and systems of linear equations, formulating and solving least squares problems, solving ordinary differential equations, performing numerical integration;
- choose a suitable method to study mathematical problems arising in different contexts of science and technology;
- structure and present mathematical ideas in both written and oral form;
- give a short oral presentation and feedback on another presentation
- give relevant and constructive feedback on technical reports, both in written and in oral form.
Content
Introduction to Matlab and basic programming. Mathematical modelling. Numerical computations: linear algebra, transformations, systems of equations, least squares problems, matrix computations, matrix factorisations, quadrature and ordinary differential equations. Treatment of problems in computer graphics, information technology, and physics applications. Writing of technical reports in Swedish. Oral presentations and feedback.
