Summary
Subject of lectures is description of basic numerical methods which are used for solution of problems in engineering.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Advanced concepts towards solution to engineering problems are signal analysis, or numerical solution of differential equations to name a few. In this course, the students get more involved into numerical methods using Matlab.
Course Contents
Topics:

1. Introduction to Matlab.
2. Data fiting - Lagrange and Chebyshev interpolation, least-square method, polygonal regression, fast Fourier
transform.
3. Numerical integration - Newton-Cotes, Gauss-Legendre, and Gauss-Hermite formula.
4. Iterative methods for nonlinear equations - bisection, fixed point iterations, Newton method.
5. Numerical solution of ordinary differential equations - one-step Euler and Crank-Nicholson methods, multi-step Runge-Kutta methods, predictor-corrector, Galerkin, and parareal methods.
