    2. Course Contents

    The course aims to introduce numerical methods used for the solution of engineering
    problems. The course emphasizes algorithm development, programming and
    application to realistic biomedical engineering problems (case studies).

    The course is planned to cover the following fundamental topics in numerical


    analysis: Basic numerical methods, finding roots of nonlinear equations (Newton’s
    method, bisection method and linear interpolation), fitting curves to data (Linear
    interpolation, fitting straight lines, fitting polynomials), systems of linear equations
    (matrix equation and eigenvalue problem), numerical integration and differentiation,
    numerical solution of ordinary differential equations (ODE) and partial differential
    equations (PDE). Least squares regression analysis. Introduction to error analysis.

    Computer Usage
    Basic knowledge of Excel, MATLAB or any equivalent program is required. During
    the course an introduction to programming using MATLAB will be given.
