Numerical Methods for Hyperbolic Equations (Sommersemester 2019)

Master Mathematics, Technical Mathematics, Economical Mathematics

We present basic theory for equations in conservation form and the fundamental principle to derive numerical methods. As an application we focus on compressible flow equations and Maxwell equations.

Requirements: Numerical Methods for Differential Equations.

Introductionary course

There will be a short course in 'Basics in Finite Elements' and 'Solving Linear Equations' by Dr. Anzt and me. It is a course in the new KIT-Centre MATHSEE and is designed for engineers. This course will replace the dates in the first week and is recommended as an introduction.

Basics in Discretisations of PDEs. Dates: Wed/Thu 24./25.4.2019, 14:00-17:15.
