ANNOUNCEMENT
Short Term Course
on
Mathematical
Modelling, Simulation and Optimization
14-24 March 2005
Department of Mechanical Engineering
Indian Institute of Technology
Kanpur
Coordinator:
Dr. Bhaskar Dasgupta
*
Mathematical Modelling *
Computer Simulation *
Design and Process Optimization
Objectives of the Course:
Cutting-edge frontiers in technology
and global competition has made it imperative for industry to
continuously strengthen its research activities, a significant
component of which involves problem formulation, analysis and
computation. This component
of research is vital also in the work of the personnel belonging to the
R&D establishments.
The purpose of this course is to
develop a firm background in analytical and computational research at a
professional level,
that would act as a launching pad for personnel in such organizations
who are going to embark on such activities in their design and
research, and would help immediately those who are engaged in it
already.
The course will be useful for college/university teachers as well
for research foundation and curriculum development.
Course Contents:
Fundamental Issues and Tools in
Computational Science and Engineering;
In-depth coverage of Numerical Linear Algebra, Optimization Methods,
Solutions of Differential Equations for Numerical Simulation, Geometric
Modelling; Mathematical Formulation of Scientific Problems and
Solutions: Case Studies;
Hands-on Training on Basic as well as Professional Problems.
Course Fees:
General
