For their final project, students prepare a written report, usually 10-15 pages long, which is graded.

Students are able to jointly model problems beyond their own discipline and simulate them on high-performance computers. They have acquired a critical distance to results and their presentation. They can defend the results of projects in disputes. They have understood the importance of stability, convergence and parallelism of numerical methods from their own experience and are able to evaluate errors in modeling, approximation, computing and presentation.

none

Lecture part: Introduction to modeling and simulations, introduction to associated numerical methods, introduction to associated software and high-performance computer hardware 

Own group work: Working on 1-2 projects in which modelling, discretization, simulation and evaluation (e.g. visualization) are carried out for specific topics from the catalog. The catalog includes e.g: Diffusion processes, turbulent flows, multiphase flows, reactive flows, particle dynamics, optimal control and optimization under constraints, stabilization methods for advection-dominated transport problems.

Basic knowledge of the analysis of boundary value problems and of numerical methods for differential equations is recommended. Knowledge of a programming language is strongly recommened.
