MATH 8660 - Finite Element Method

3 Credits (3 Contact Hours)
Discusses the basic theory of the finite element method (FEM) for the numerical approximation of partial differential equations. Topics include Sobolev spaces, interpolation theory, finite element spaces, error estimation, and implementation of FEM in one and higher dimensions. Students are expected to have completed a senior- or graduate-level course in scientific computing and an undergraduate-level course in advanced calculus II; or to have completed an undergraduate-level course in advanced calculus I and a graduate-level course in matrix analysis before enrolling in this course.
