• Introduction to the issue of numerical simulations. Physical modeling, abstract modeling. Similarity and plot modeling.
• Historical perspective on modeling and simulation. Examples of problem solving without the use of powerful computers and commercial software.
• Analytical and numerical methods. Mesh method, finite difference method, finite element method (FEM) and finite volume method (FVM) and CFD – theoretical foundations.
• Commercial software and CAD systems.
• Basic principles for using software – task, subject, goal of the simulated event. Advantages and disadvantages of simulation, risks. Principles and basics of building and defining a task. Boundary conditions. Samples.
• Use of simulations in progressive technical-commercial fields.
• Presentation of students' seminar papers on the given topics - discussion on the topics. Critical conclusions.
