Topics Covered
This intensive three day course covers two key parts:
Part One – Fundamentals of Newton's Method and its Variants
This will focus on Taylor series expansion, Newton's method, inexact Newton methods and quasi-Newton methods. Concept of nonlinear preconditioners.
Part Two – Practical Methods for Nonlinear PDEs
This section will cover practical examples from engineering, physics and computational finance.
Key Benefits
- Participants will be equipped with the knowledge of the methodology required to underpin nonlinear problems.
- State-of-the-art techniques will be demonstrated.
- Classes are small, allowing plenty of scope for questions and discussion.
Who is the course for?
The course is suitable for junior postgraduate students who are working towards a PhD, postdoctoral researchers and industrial researchers who need to solve nonlinear problems.
