Math/CS 467/677 Numerical Methods II
Instructor Course Section Time ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Olson 001 Math 467 INTRO TO ANALYSIS II MWF 10:00-10:50pm AB635The development of computers in the late 1940's and their great advances in power over the last fifty years has lead to a revolution in the field of numerical analysis. The goal of this course sequence is to provide the student with the numerical tools and methodology necessary to treat their own problems.
Numerical Methods II will cover the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, initial value problems, boundard value problems and elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations. Techniques covered will include finite and upwind difference methods, explicit and implicit methods, the fast Fourier transform, multigrid, and the fast multipole method.
Note that Math/CS 466/666 Numerical Methods I is not a prerequisite for this course.
