PHYS 3910 - Intermediate Computational Modeling of Physical Systems



3 hours

Intermediate-level survey of computer-based modeling of physical systems. Includes the theory and hands-on implementation of computational approaches to solve problems related to classical mechanics, nonlinear dynamics, oscillations, electromagnetic fields, simple random problems, and thermal systems. Describes intermediate-level numerical methods related to function analysis (roots of linear and non-linear equations, derivatives, integrals), linear algebra (linear systems, eigenvalues and eigenvectors), optimization and ordinary differential equations. Covers data analysis, regression, function fitting and an introduction to machine learning approaches on large datasets. 

Prerequisite(s): PHYS 3510 , PHYS 1520  or PHYS 2220 .

Course specific fees (in addition to tuition and mandatory):
Academic (AF) per hour: $33.05
