FACULTY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING UNIVERSITI TEKNOLOGI MALAYSIA, SKUDAI JOHOR APPLIED NUMERICAL METHODS (SME 3023 section 3) - SEMESTER

2 2010/2011 Learning Outcomes: On the completion of the course, students should be able to 1. Develop a mathematical model representing the important characteristics of the physical system under investigation. 2. Derive the governing equations of the model by applying physical laws, such as equilibrium equations, Newtons Laws of motion, conservation of mass, and energy. 3. Solve the governing equations analytically and/or numerically. 4. Interpret the validity and accuracy of the solutions. Week 1 2 3 Content/Topic
