CMP 340 - Computational Techniques for Physical Sciences

4 Hour(s)
By way of a variety of examples from the Physical Sciences, students will develop data analysis, algorithmic design, and mathematical modeling skills. Possible examples are Fluid Dynamics, ROTMOKE Magnetic Anisotropy, Mossbauer Spectroscopy, Molecular Modeling, Contaminate Models for Soil and/or Water, Stellar-structure models, or various Chaotic Systems. Techniques used will include Data Analyses, Differential Equations and Finite-Difference Simulations, Cellular Automata, Compartmental Models, and Stochastic Models.
