This course is designed to equip students to use software to analyze and solve practical engineering problems. After completing this course, students can move from a general problem statement to a software solution. Students will develop skills in logic, algorithm design, data structure design, and debugging. Students apply these skills to a variety of engineering, mathematical, and numerical methods problem areas. The topics covered include analysis of data from source files (e.g. text files, Excel files), advanced plotting, methods of solving differential equations, numerical integration, linear algebra, roots of polynomials, curve fitting (linear and polynomial regression), interpolation, and finite element analysis.
