Description This unit deals with numerical analysis which includes topics from optimisation including constrained and unconstrained optimisation by quasi-Newton and other methods; Lagrangian, Hermite and finite element interpolation in one and two dimensions; approximation in one, two and infinity norms; quadrature including Newton-Cotes, Gaussian and finite elements; integration of ordinary differential equations including explicit methods, stiff systems and error analysis, matrix factorisations; and iterative methods. Numerical computing shows how the above relates to contemporary mathematical software. For more info see the Handbook: http://handbooks.uwa.edu.au/units/math/math3322 | |||

Assessment This comprises an end-of-semester examination and in-semester tests or assignments. Computers are used extensively. All assessment tasks require students to apply their knowledge of the unit content to solve previously unseen problems. Credit is given for clarity and correctness of presentation as well as for actual results.Supplementary assessment is not available in this unit except in the case of a bachelor's degree student who has obtained a mark of 45 to 49 and is currently enrolled in this unit, and it is the only remaining unit that the student must pass in order to complete the course. |
