    Reasons to study numerical Analysis


    Powerful problem solving techniques and can be
    used to handle large systems of equations
    It enables you to intelligently use the commercial
    software packages as well as designing your own
    algorithm.
    Numerical Methods are efficient vehicles in learning
    to use computers
    It Reinforce your understanding of mathematics;
    where it reduces higher mathematics to basic
    arithmetic operation.

    Chapter 1: Mathematical Modeling


    Mathematical Model
    A formulation or equation that expresses the essential
    features of a physical system or process in mathematical
    terms.
    Generally, it can be represented as a functional
    relationship of the form

    Mathematical Modeling

    Simple Mathematical Model


    Example: Newtons Second Law
    (The time rate of change of momentum of a body is
    equal to the resultant force acting on it)

    a = acceleration (m/s2) .the dependent variable


    m = mass of the object (kg) .the parameter
    representing a property of the system.
    f = force acting on the body (N)

    Typical characteristics of Math. model


    It describes a natural process or system in
    mathematical way
    It represents the idealization and simplification
    of reality.
    It yields reproducible results, and can be used
    for predictive purpose.

    Complex Mathematical Model


    Example: Newtons Second Law

    Where:
    c = drag coefficient (kg/s),
    v = falling velocity (m/s)

    Complex Mathematical Model

    At rest: (v = 0 at t = 0),
    Calculus can be used to solve the equation
