Numerical Simulation of Physical Processes

Country

As a result of this study course the student acquires basic knowledge about multiphysical modeling, basic steps of problem-solving, verification and analysis of results. The acquired competencies allow to  hoose a physical model suitable for the description of the physical  process, to explain physical processes on the basis of obtained results and to give recommendations for optimization of the physical process.

Finite Element and Boundary Element Methods

Country

The course focuses on two methods designed for calculation of physical fields: finite element method (FEM) and boundary element method (BEM). Students learn basics of both methods.

Theoretical lectures are complemented by laboratory work sessions, where students acquire practical skills in the use of the appropriate software.

In addition to the theoretical background students acquire numerical aspects of realization of these methods in computer codes.
Open source software „freefem++” and "gmsh" are used as basic tools to learn FEM and BEM.

Introduction to Computational Modelling

Country

The goal of the course is to introduce the students to the basics of data analysis and machine learning methods as an additional tool for finding patterns in data and issuing predictions, by working with data from various physical systems.

The tasks of the course are to introduce the students to the elements of data analysis - cleaning, analysis and visualization, based on data from real physical systems; to apply the machine learning algorithms by mathematically modelling various physical systems.
