Data Acquisition & Data Analysis 3: Mathematical Modeling with Matlab - Einzelansicht

The seminar in Mathematical Modeling with Matlab consists of two parts: Mathematical Modeling and Matlab.

We will first introduce you to the program Matlab (Matrix Laboratory). This program can be used to do complicated calculations, to display data in clear figures, to filter data, to do statistics, etc. In order to do so sufficiently, it is necessary to learn a whole new language, namely the language of programming.

The second goal is to give you an introduction into Mathematical Modeling. By means of differential equations we will focus on a simplified model on movement: the mass-spring model.

Since Matlab is a computer program and we do not have a big computer room, bringing your own laptop is manditory. The course will largely be structured in Learnweb.

Maths in Motion - Theo de Haan (€29.95)

Several papers including models - these will be available on Learnweb

This course does not involve measured data, but has a theoretical nature.

Based on models, we simulate real world situations in the computer, which make it easier to change parameters.

In this way we can predict movements, instead of analysing it afterwards.
