Abstract
The aim of the course is to give a theoretical and practical knowledge of the finite element method for saddle point problems, such as the ones of fluid dynamics, elasticity and electromagnetic problems.
Objective
By the end of the course, the student must be able to: - Identify features of a PDE relevant for the selection and performance of a numerical algorithm. - Assess / Evaluate numerical methods in light of the theoretical results. - Implement numerical methods for saddle point problems - Choose an appropriate method to solve a given differential problem - Prove convergence of a discretisation scheme
