DISCONTINUOUS GALERKIN METHODS FOR SOLVING ENGINEERING PROBLEMS

Credit Hours: 3 · Graduate

The course will present the theory and implementation of discontinuous Galerkin methods for partial differential equations common in engineering applications. Two main classes of problems are covered: steady-state and time-dependent elliptic/parabolic and hyperbolic equations. These include (but are not limited to) the Poisson and heat equations, linear wave equations, and nonlinear conservation laws. Recommended Prerequisite(s): (CAAM 336 or CMOR 304 or CAAM 453 or CMOR 422 or CAAM 553 or CMOR 524 )
