Approx. 12 students in a diploma program (having completed your Vordiplom), a B.Sc. program (being at least in the fifth semester), or a M.Sc. program covering important aspects of numerical simulation, such as
This course is offered in cooperation with the Bavarian Graduate School in Computational Engineering.
The increasing quest for higher levels of detail and realism in such simulations requires enormous computational capacity, advanced programming skills, and sophisticated models and algorithms. Due to the progresses in each of these fields, we can now solve large-scale problems that were once thought to be intractable.
Successful simulation projects typically require an interdisciplinary team of (applied) mathematicians, computer scientists, and engineers from the respective field of application. Opportunities to get used to this style of interdisciplinary work are much to rare during regular university programs, but our course at the JASS provides an excellent framework, bringing students from different fields together - during the course sessions, but also enjoying together the recreational activities.
Rather than focusing on a specific area of application, our goal is to get insight into the methodology of simulation. It will cover topics from applied mathematics (discretization techniques, fast solvers), computer science (efficient implementations, especially for parallel computers, visualization) and example applications (fluid mechanics or structural mechanics, e.g.)
To have maximum profit from our course, it is important that you are willing to cooperate with students from the other fields: learning about the topics that they bring into the program, but also giving a talk on a topic of your area of interest that can be understood by your (hopefully also cooperative) colleagues from other disciplines.
The course language is English. Expenses for travel, board and lodging are covered by the JASS. The deadline for applications is January 29, 2007. Send in this form to apply for this course or one of the other courses of the JASS07.Student | Topic | Slides | Handout |
