SEMESTER IV
181401 NUMERICAL
METHODS 3 1
0 4
(Common to Civil, Aero & EEE)
AIM
With the present
development of the computer technology, it is necessary to develop efficient
algorithms for solving problems in science, engineering and technology. This
course gives a complete procedure for solving different kinds of problems occur
in engineering numerically.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of the
course, the students would be acquainted with the basic concepts in numerical
methods and their uses are summarized as follows:
The roots of
nonlinear (algebraic or transcendental) equations, solutions of large system of
linear equations and eigen value problem of a matrix can be obtained
numerically where analytical methods fail to give solution.
When huge amounts of
experimental data are involved, the methods discussed on interpolation will be
useful in constructing approximate polynomial to represent the data and to find
the intermediate values.
The numerical
differentiation and integration find application when the function in the
analytical form is too complicated or the huge amounts of data are given such
as series of measurements, observations or some other empirical information.
Since many physical
laws are couched in terms of rate of change of one/two or more independent
variables, most of the engineering problems are characterized in the form of
either nonlinear ordinary differential equations or partial differential equations.
The methods introduced in the solution of ordinary differential equations and
partial differential equations will be useful in attempting any engineering
problem.
