Software: MATLAB by MathWorks.
Available on (most) Chalmers computer systems. Private licence can be bought at Cremona (500:- ?).
Mathematics Laboratory (ML), demos & virtual math laboratorys
covering most of the AMB&S program, matlab code examples and shells.
Project f(x)=0
Project groups of 3-4 work on mathematical modeling, typically resulting in (analytically unsolvable) equations, implement solvers for such (general algebraic) equations, apply these to the derived model equations, and present their work in oral and written form.
Examination:
Grades 5 (good), 4 (fair), 3 (acceptable), U (failed), based on written exam and project work.
