Goals The aim of this course is to explain the use of numerical methods for mathematical expressions that require numerical solutions in engineering problems. The solution of linear and non-linear equations, and alternative methods for solving various engineering problems by using different methods such as interpolation, Numerical Integration, and numerical derivative are explained to students.
Course Content Error analysis, taylor series, solution of linear equations and sets of equations, solution of nonlinear equations and sets of equations, interpolation, numerical derivative, numerical integral, numerical solutions of ordinary differential equations.
Learning Outcomes - Students identify engineering problems with the ability to think analytically.
- Students learn to solve the given problem by developing data collection and formulating features.
- Students will have knowledge about basic Mathematics, Science and Electrical Engineering and can apply it to practice.
- Students will have the ability to design, conduct, analyze and interpret a desired engineering experiment.
- Students will have the ability to identify, define and solve an engineering problem they encounter.
