Required background

We will be using Matlab as the main programming/graphics environment, therefore, students must be familiar or learn the use of Matlab during this class. The course will focus on the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs) typical of hydraulics and transport problems in groundwater and open channel flows, however, students are required to have a background on elementary numerical methods, namely:

  1. Solution to equations with one variable (e.g., bisection, Newton-Raphson, secant methods).
  2. Solution to systems of non-linear equations on more than one variable (e.g., generalized Newton-Raphson and secant methods)
  3. Matrix algebra (e.g., transpose, inverse, addition, multiplication, etc.) -- You may want to download this free book on Matrix Algebra by Autar K Kaw, University of South Florida
  4. Linear algebra and solution of systems of linear equations (Gaussian and Gauss-Jordan elimination, pivoting, LU decomposition, quadratic forms)
  5. Numerical integration (trapezoidal rule, Simpson's rule, Gaussian quadrature)
  6. Data fitting (least-square for linear fitting, multiple-linear fitting, polynomial fitting) 7. Numerical solution to ordinary differential equations - ODEs (Euler method, Runge-Kutta methods, stiff ODEs)
