Finite Elements in Computational Engineering
First meeting: Wed, 8. Oct, 16:30, SR 101 B
lecture notes: pdf
grading: participation + team project, ECTS: 4.5
In this lecture we discuss proper finite element methods for applications including solid- and fluid-mechanics as well as electromagnetics.
We will perform simulations with the finite element package Netgen/NGSolve developed at the Institute for Analysis and Scientific Computing.
We also discuss the implementation of fem including high order elements, Raviart-Thomas and Nedelec elements, preconditioning, parallelization, ...
Please bring your notebook-computer (Windows or Linux) to class.
