Objectives
  • The presentation of the basic concepts of mathematical modeling, mainly relied on differential equations and dynamical systems.
  • The knowledge about MATLAB and its applications in the study of continuous mathematical models.
General thematicsMathematical modeling ( generalities, basic notions and principles ). Discrete and continuous models ( description, main characteristics ). Differential equations and dynamical systems ( basis ). Some models governed by differential equations ( examples ). MATLAB ( foundations; important tools; programming environment ). The analysis of continuous models by MATLAB facilities.
Seminary / Laboratory thematicsIllustrated techniques of mathematical modeling. Simple classic and modern, discrete and continuous models (concrete presentation). Differential equations and dynamical systems (by means of practical exercises). Certain models based on differential equations (examples). MATLAB elements (computer applications). Mathematical modeling using MATLAB (laboratory activities).
Teaching methodsTheoretical exposition. Practical illustration. Heuristic procedures. Computerized analysis.
