APPLICATIONS NUMERIQUES EN MATLAB
MATLAB-BASED NUMERICAL APPLICATION IN ENGINEERING:
Base competencies: Introduction to Matlab and ‘Numerical Methods I’
lectures.
Target competencies :
Students should be able to identify the type of problems that require
numerical techniques.
The computer assignments are based on the software package Matlab, to
solve problems with emphasis on application in Engineering . This is an
important component of the course ‘Numerical Methods I’.
Content include:
Root finding; interpolation and approximation; numerical integration;
ordinary differential equations and linear systems.

METHODES NUMERIQUES DE BASE
NUMERICAL METHODS I (Each chapter begins with real-world problem involving
the numerical method)
Prerequisite(s): Introductory calculus and linear algebra.
Learning Objectives :
Students should have a basic knowledge of modern numerical techniques they
could use to accurately approximate solutions of problems that cannot be solved
exactly. They should know how, why and when these techniques can be expected
to work and estimate bounds for the errors in the approximations.
Topics include:
Root finding of single nonlinear equation and system of nonlinear equations; Data
interpolation and approximation; numerical integration and numerical
differentiation;
Numerical techniques for ordinary differential equations (ODE) and system of
ODEs ; Direct and iterative methods for linear systems.

with emphasis on application in Engineering e.g optimization problems.
Topics include:
Partial and directional derivatives; Differentials and Jacobian matrix ; Taylor Series and
Hessian ; Inverse functions; Implicit functions; extrema and unconstrained
optimization; Lagrange multipliers and equation-constrained optimization;
Systems of ODEs and dynamical systems: solution of systems of linear ODEs;
introduction to nonlinear sytems of ODEs: phase space, singular points, stability.

VECTOR CALCULUS
Prerequisite(s): Introductory calculus .
Learning Objectives:
Students should be able to use vector calculus differential calculus of functions of several
variables with emphasis on application in Engineering e.g optimization problems.
Topics include:
Vector algebra overview; Line, surface and volume integrals; Gradient, Divergence and
Curl; Integral Theorems; Curvilinear Coordinates; Cartesian
