Objective of the course
On completion of the course the successful student is expected to have the following:
- Knowledge Be able to describe in words, the central terminology, definitions, ideas, results, and methods used in FEM programming (K1, K2).
- Skills Be able to use the knowledge to make a simple implementation and to analyse and prepare a general implementation (S1).
- General competence Know that numerical calculations based on theoretical analysis of the finite element method can be a tool in the study of partial differential equations and simulation, and use the relevant terminology to communicate about the results. (GC2).
