Cursusdoelen
  • The student can explain the finite difference and finite element technique and can apply these to solve the common partial differential equations of physics
  • The student can distinguish between elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equations, and formulate initial and boundary conditions.
  • The student can apply the calculus of vector fields and vector differentials and the integral theorems of Stokes and Gauss to solve or simplify related integrals and partial differential equations.
  • The student can translate a partial differential equation problem to COMSOL and validate the result of the evaluation.
Inhoud
The Finite Element method is used in many engineering areas to evaluate a system described by (partial) differential equations such as fluid motion, thermal behaviour, mechanical stress and bending as well as electromagnetic phenomena. In many engineering problems it is actually a combination of these effects that play a role, for example the cooling of a mechanical structure to prevent thermal expansion with the flow of a cooling fluid. Working with a Finite Element method is not just asking the computer for an answer, as an answer it will give. Therefore this technique can only be used with a proper set-up of the problem and the validation of the results.
