Fourier analysis and numerical methods have long played a pivotal role in the solution of differential equations across science and engineering. By decomposing complex functions into sums of ...

Every once and a while, I like to add new ways to do numerical calculations. In this case, it is with Khan Academy's new computer science module. First, a couple of notes about the Khan Academy ...

Optical systems employ a rich array of physical effects which are described by well-understood equations. However, for all but the simplest devices these equations are typically too complex to permit ...

The mere attendance of the lecture is valued at 2 CP. If the tutorials are completed as well (> 70 %), 3 CP are awarded. For this, the solutions to the problems must be handed in before the next ...

We study numerical methods for the one-dimensional inverse problem of reflection seismology. An impulsive plane wave in pressure is applied to the surface of a piecewise smooth stratified elastic half ...
