jedes SS

Dauer des Moduls:

1 Semester

Studienleistung:

At least 50% score in the homework assignments.

Modulprüfung:

Written or oral exam

Prüfungsdauer:

120 Minuten

Arbeitsaufwand:

70h attendance + 110h independent study = 180h workload

Fachkompetenzen:

It is the goal of this module that the students can recognize ordinary and partial differential equations as such and also some of their types. They know how to solve certain types of differential equations, some explicitly, others numerically. They can recognize autonomous systems, find stationary solutions and determine their stability properties.

Schlüsselkompetenzen:

It is the goal of this module that the students can interpret differential equations in the sense that they understand which effect is modelled by each term. They are conscious of stability problems and of the fact that even comparatively simple models can lead to chaotic solutions.

Anmerkungen:

Maximum number of participants: 20

Registration for ESS students: automatically.

Registration for students of other M.Sc. programmes: register in person with the lecturer at the beginning of the term.
