Francesco Santini (francesco.santini@unibas.ch) |
| Content | Fourier Series, Fourier Transforms, and Laplace transforms and their applications to solving differential equations and image analysis. Systems of coupled linear first-order differential equations. Numerical methods for solving ordinary differential equations. Brief introduction to partial differential equations relevant in applied physics and engineering. |
| Learning objectives | - Representing functions as weighted infinite sums or integrals of suitable basic functions, such as trigonometric functions (Fourier series and Fourier transforms). - Laplace transforms: Learn how the operations of differentiation and integration can be mapped into algebraic operations, thus converting the task of solving an ordinary linear differential equation into the simpler task of solving an algebraic equation over the complex numbers. Applications to control theory (i.e. transfer functions). - Solve systems of coupled linear first-order differential equations. - Learn the algorithms behind numerical solvers of ordinary differential equations. - Get acquainted with partial differential equations relevant in applied physics and engineering. |
