Numerical Methods for Time-Dependent Partial Differential Equations

wisL602, Spring 2019

Lecturer: Dr. P.A. Zegeling, room 513, Math. Building (= HF-Building), Budapestlaan 6, Utrecht (030-2533720).
Venue: Universiteit Utrecht , Budapestlaan 6, Utrecht, HF-Building : room 611AB
Time: 10:00-12:45 (theory and exercises).
Literature: lecture notes and articles (see below) and background material => the book "Finite Difference Methods for Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations" by Randall J. LeVeque, 2007.


Grade: the final grade (FG) will be based on 20% computerexercise C1, 20% computerexercise C2 and 60% the test ("tentamen") TT, i.e. FG = 0.2*C1+0.2*C2+0.6*TT.
