Announcements
- The exam review for the repeat exam will take place on Friday, Oct 25, 15:00-16:00, in the seminar room 02.07.023.
- The repeat exam will take place on Monday, Oct 14, 10:00-11:45, in room 5604.EG.011 (00.04.011, MI Hörsaal 2). All conditions (auxiliary material which is allowed, etc.) will be identical as in the first exam.
- The exam review will take place on Friday, Aug 9, from 12-14 in our seminar room (MI 02.07.023).
- lecture on Tuesday, July 2, will move to Monday, July 1, 12.00-13.30 (room MI 02.07.023): for organizational reasons, the lectures Numerical Programming II and Scientific Computing will be swapped on these two days
- due to the student assembly, the lecture on Tuesday, May 14, is skipped
- due to a short holiday (Whit Monday/Pentecost), lecture and tutorial on May 20/21 will be skipped
- on Mon 27, we will restart with a lecture (which replaces the usual tutorial)

Contents
This course provides a deeper knowledge in two important fields of scientific computing:
- iterative solution of large sparse systems of linear equations:
- relaxation methods
- multigrid methods
- steepest descent
- conjugate gradient methods
- molecular dynamics simulations
- the physical model
- the mathematical model
- approximations and discretization
- implementational aspects
- parallelisation
- examples of nanofluidic simulations
The course is conceived for computer scientists, mathematicians, engineers, or natural scientists with already a background in the numerical treatment of (partial) differential equations.
