Registration deadline: 1 March 2018
AIM OF THE COURSE: This course teaches modeling and simulation techniques for spatiotemporal systems. You will learn to account for the geometry of a system and for transport in space. After repetition of the basics from mathematics and physics, you will model processes such as diffusion, reactions, and flow, and simulate them in the computer.
COURSE REQUIREMENTS: Working knowledge of computer programming in any language (e.g. Matlab, Phython, Java) and solid undergraduate knowledge in calculus and vector analysis
SPECIAL REMARK: We focus on biological systems. The taught methods and concepts are, however, applicable in a much broader sense.
LEARNING GOAL:
- Analysis of the dynamic behaviour of biological or physical systems with spatial structure
- Formulation of a model of the system behaviour
- Computer simulation of the model using numerical methods
The number of participants is limited to 30.
We will inform you after 1 MARCH 2018 whether a slot in the lecture series could be assigned to you!
