Survey
"Dynamical Systems & Scientific Computing" introduces the theory and numerics of randomly disturbed differential equations from the point of view of both Dynamical Systems and Scientific Computing. This newly introduced course is designed as a seminar with a dedicated workshop part supplemented by exercises and some few lectures. The course is open (and meant for) students of mathematics as well as informatics: This interesting combination of different backgrounds will allow for fruitful discussion and solution approaches.
The focus of this course is on the student-centred approach to the topics during the seminary part. In the 3-day workshop, the participants apply their kowledge to a specific problem on earthquake responses in multi-storey buildings. Most parts of the so-called simulation pipeline are, thus, tackled in a hands-on approach:
- Theory
- Modelling
- Numerics & Algorithms
- Implementation & Data Structures
- Visualisation
- Verification & Validation
The major innovative element of this course is the workshop: The task is to realise a small software product in matlab. The participants will experience (parts of) the challenges and requirements of interdisciplinary projects in academia and industry.
