Objectives

Model physical equations (solid mechanics, diffusion/transport equations),

wave equations, etc.) in the form of ODEs or PDEs, classify these equations according to their degree of complexity.

difficulty

  1. Use numerical methods to solve these equations (essentially

differences and spectral approach), take into account boundary conditions

  1. Analyze the effectiveness of digital diagrams, and understand their strengths and weaknesses.

weaknesses 

  1. Critically analyze mathematical and numerical solutions in relation to physics
