Description

The objective of this course is to give an introduction to numerical tools for solving partial differential equations from different fields of engineering. We will deal with the spectral method applied to the heat diffusion equation in a bar and the development of codes based on this technique. In particular, students will have to implement this method in Python in order to integrate the basics of this language and the versioning tools. The documents submitted by the students will be produced using the Latex word processor.
