Programming with mechanical engineering applications

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: MSAD31

The course imparts the required knowledge and skills to address typical scientific and practical mechanical engineering and material science problems within the modelling and simulation of systems with the help of computer programming in a modern, high-level programming language. Relevant technical case studies are introduced as part of the course. The course is structured in three subsequent thematic blocks: Block A - Programming Addresses fundamental concepts in programming, such as control flow structures, data structures and processing, programme structures, graphics and visualisation, and version control. Block B - Computer mathematics Introduces the fundamental mathematics required for modelling and simulation within mechanical engineering and material science, and how the commands and routines of the selected programming language can be used for mathematical calculations in statistics, linear algebra, and calculus. Block C - Modelling and simulation Covers several techniques useful for modelling and simulating mechanical engineering and material science problems with the help of the selected programming language, including interpolation and solving non-linear equation systems, differential equations, and optimisation problems. Instruction is in the form of lectures, workshops, and laboratory sessions. Students will work independently with a project that runs throughout the course.

Behörighet
