Students master advanced content and methods of numerics for partial differential equations, in particular they can independently carry out very complex proofs in this area requiring a high level of mathematical expertise. They expand their knowledge of how partial differential equations are solved with the help of computers and can apply this knowledge to other problems (parabolic equations, fluid problems or non-linear PDEs). They learn both the theoretical tools for the corresponding error analysis and how to carry out simulations on the computer themselves.
Students will be introduced to current research questions in the area of Numerics of PDE. They are able to recognise and assess further development opportunities and research goals.
Furthermore, students recognise further-reaching connections to mathematical issues that have already been worked out. They can transfer and apply the knowledge and methods they have learnt so far to deeper mathematical problem areas. Students also expand their mathematical intuition as a result of more intensive study.
In combination with other in-depth modules, they will be able to write their own research papers, e.g. a master's thesis in the field of Numerics of PDE.
In the tutorials, students develop their ability to discuss mathematical topics and thus further prepare themselves for the requirements of the Master's module, in particular for the scientific discussion within the Master's seminar presentation and the defence of their Master's thesis.
Further teaching content from the area of numerics of PDEs are, for example:
This module prepares the content of a master's thesis.

(exercise)
Regular completion of the exercises, each with a recognisable solution approach, as well as participation in the exercise groups for the module's lecture. As a rule, participation in the exercise group includes presenting solutions to exercises twice after being asked to do so as well as regular contributions to the scientific discussion in the exercise group, for example in the form of comments and questions on the proposed solutions presented. The organiser may replace some of the exercises with face-to-face exercises. |
