Goal(s)

This course aims to solve numerically different problems associated to the modelling in physics (ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, optimisation, ...). Numerical Tools (integration, interpolation, solving systems of equations) as well methods (Runge & Kutta, Finite Difference method, Finite Element Method, ...) are presented.
