Module overview

Mathematical models of complex phenomena are everywhere, from climate, to gravity, to industry. Most are complex, multi-dimensional sets of partial differential equations. The analytic solution of these equations is often impractical or impossible. This module will cover the numerical solution and analysis of a range of partial differential equations, with a focus on applications in fluid dynamics and climate modelling.
