Mathematical Modelling
Weekly outline
-
Pri Matematičnem modeliranju študenti (relativno) realne probleme rešujejo s pomočjo matematičnih modelov. Študenti se spoznajo s timskim delom in lahko sami, skupaj s kolegi v ekipi (in ob pomoči učiteljske ekipe) izpeljejo projekt od začetka do konca.
Predmet je razdeljen na tri glavna poglavja:
- Linearni modeli: sistemi linearnih enačb, posplošeni inverzi matrik
- Nelinearni modeli: vektorske funkcije vektorske spremenljivke, sistemi nelienarnih enačb, krivulje in ploskve
- Dinamični modeli: diferencialne enačbe in dinamični sistemi
During the course of Mathematical Modelling the students will be solving (relatively) real life problems with the help of mathematical models. Students will be introduced to team work and will be given the opportunity to carry out a complete relatively complex project from the beginning to the very end together with their colleagues (and with the help of the teaching team) .
The course consists of three main topics:
- Linear models: systems of linear equations, generalized inverses of matrices
- Nonlinear models: vector functions of a vector variable, nonlinear systems, curves and surfaces
- Dynamic models: differential equations and dynamical systems
-
