FEB 759: MODELLING DYNAMIC SYSTEMS

Offered: 
2020
EBE

Modeling is a key tool is postgraduate and indeed all scientific research. A study of theoretical, experimental and computer methods for characterizing the dynamic behavior of complex systems is the focus of this course. It gives a sound philosophical and mathematical overview of modeling systems as well as detailed mathematical and empiricalmodeling including computer simulation and solutions.

FEB 610: Similitude Theory and Applications

Offered: 
2020
EBE

Course objectives
1. To be able to identify correctly and to list complete, non-redundant set of governing quantities that characterize physical system.
2. To become able to generate valid set of dimensionless parameters that adequately characterizes physical system.
3. To become able to plan and organize experiment to define the response of physical systems to forcing effect through application of dimensional concepts and similitude theory.
