CL1106 Numerical Methods In Engineering [2 0 1 3]

Course Learning Outcome:

After successful completion of the course, student will be able to
apply statistical methods for data analysis
solve algebraic equations, numerical differentiation & integration problems
evaluate numerical solution for ordinary & partial differential equations
solve characteristic equations related to structural engineering
develop computer programmes for numerical methods

Syllabus:
Error analysis, types of errors, accuracy & precision, stability in numerical analysis, Curve fitting, Method
of least squares
Interpolation & extrapolation, general interpolation formulae, finite differences, difference operators,
differences of a polynomial, Numerical differentiation & integration
