After successful completion of the course, students are able to comprehend the materials presented in the lecture and to draw conclusions from them, as well as to actively communicate the contents presented during the lecture.
Numerical methods and computational physics with the topics
For the exercises C,C++ is used.
Lecture with integrated exercise
Preliminary discussion during the first lecture unit on 4.3. 2024 at 16:00.
Exercises start Tu/We at 12:00 in the EDV room of the Faculty of Physics.
A tentative schedule can be found in the section Documents (Unterlagen).
Please also register for one of the two exercise groups (Tuesday / Wednesday) in TISS. If you are also attending the lecture "Scientific Computing", please choose the *same* day for the exercise.
For the final mark the results of the tests are weighted by 2/3 that of the exercises by 1/3. Additionally, you have to achieve at least 50% of the total points and at least 40% of the test points in each test.
To solve the exercise problems you should work together in teams of two.
If you failed one test you may participate in an additional test (Nachtest) at the beginning of the next WS.
If you plan to improve your mark through the additional test, please inform us after the 2nd test.
If you only failed for the test part in a previous VU, you can take credit of your previous exercises and only participate in the test.
In der Vorbesprechung am 4.3.2024 (16:00 FH HS 6) werden alle Details geklärt.Da diese LVA Pflicht für Master-Studierende ist, werden diese bei der Vergabe der Plätze vorgereiht.Wenn danach noch Plätze frei sind, können auch Studierende aus dem Bachelorstudium teilnehmen.
The student has to be enrolled for at least one of the studies listed below
Numerical Recipes 3rd Edition: The Art of Scientific Computing W.H. Press, S.A. Teukolsky, W.T. Vetterling, B.P. Flannery (Cambridge University Press, 2007)
NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions, Eds. F.W.J. Olver, D.W. Lozier, R.F. Boisvert, C.W. Clark (Cambridge University Press, 2010)
Computational Physics, S. E. Koonin, D. C. Meredith (Addison-Wesley Publishing Comp., 1990)
If you have deficits here please refresh your programming skills, i.e., program, before the first exercise.
For the physics applications:
Statistical physics, quantum mechanics, mechanics, electrodynamics.
