CIE 411LEC - Applied Math in Civil Eng

The course introduces numerical procedures for the solution of various problems encountered in civil and environmental engineering. It emphasizes the need of numerical analysis, and demonstrates its use as a powerful problem-solving tool. The course introduces a brief review of various civil and environmental engineering problems (e.g., truss analysis, plug flow reactor, dynamics of mass-spring system, regression on traffic problems), which require numerical analysis as a problem-solving tool. In addition, the topics include MATLAB fundamentals, numerical linear algebra, root finding, curve fitting/interpolation, numerical differentiation/integration, and ordinary differential equations.
