Modeling and Simulation: Fall 2020

NOTE: Please understand that this course was given during the 2020 Covid Pandemic. An adherence to a normal course outline was not enforced and alot of manipulation of the original syllabus happened.

Outline

The course was structured into Weekly concepts with overlap for exams.

  • Introduction and Simple Plots
  • Newton's Method and Symbolic Differentiation
  • Numeric Integration and Three-Dimentional Graphs
  • Regression and Curve Fitting
  • Discrete Dynamical Systems
  • Bifurcations and Chaos
  • Ordinary Differential Equations
  • Non-Linear Differential Equations and the Lorentz Attractor
  • SIR disease modelling and Covid-19 Data

    • Structure

    The course content was sent out via video links and then supplemented with Zoom sessions. The first two weeks were in-person and then the course moved remote. As such there is no videos for the first two weeks.

    The students were give html versions of Jupyter Lab notebooks, primarily for students to get used to developing their own code. I will link both the html and videos associated with them
