This course introduces numerical methods used by mechanical engineers. It involves coding algorithms in Matlab and observing the types of numerical errors that arise. It is suitable for junior and senior undergraduates and graduate students. It provides a foundation for Advanced Numerical Analysis (MIE 603), which presumes an understanding of basic numerical methods and focuses on accounting for numerical errors in order to analyze engineering problems using numerical solutions that inherently include error.
