• University: Leibniz University Hannover
• Semester: 3
• Lecturer 1: Sven Beuchler
• Lecturer 2: Thomas Wick
• Objectives:

   

  This course is devoted to the numerical solution of partial differential equations (PDEs).
  The students will learn how to design numerical algorithms, establish their theoretical properties, and how to realize them in
  implementations.

• Topics:

   

  Recapitulation of characteristic concepts of numerical mathematics
  Brief review of mathematical modeling of differential equations
  Discretization with Finite differences (FD) for elliptic boundary value problems
  Discretization with Finite elements (FEM) for elliptic boundary value problems
  Numerical solution of the discretized problems
