This course focuses on Mathematical Modelling, i.e. the ability to model various phenomena in terms of mathematics. The mathematical models can be used for various purposes; to get increased knowledge about the phenomena, to analyse the phenomena, to simulate the phenomena, to control the phenomena, etc. To construct mathematical models suitable for a defined purpose is a skill. This course will pratice these skills. It consists of two lectures, a project (with 100 hours of workload per person), and project presentations.
Project presentations 2: Tuesday March 13 at 13.15-17.00, Seminar room of Automatic Control, M-building.
A Project plan (one A4 page) should be specified together with the supervisor. (See first page of PM on project work.) The plan must be submitted to the course responsible by February 6. Use email with subject line "FRT095".
Description of how the work is distributed within the group and the supervisor's role.
A preliminary version of the report sent by email to the opposition group, the supervisor, and the course responsible at least 2.5 working days before the oral presentation. Final project report, adjusted according to the comments in the report, to be submitted to the course responsible no later than 3 working days after the oral presentation. Use email with subject line "FRTN45".
Oral presentations will be held on two separate occasions during the last week of the course, in the Automatic Control seminar room on the second floor near the south stairs of the M-building. Each group must make a presentation in which all group members are active and all members should be able to answer questions about all aspects of the project. There will an examination board consisting of the supervisors. For each presentation allocated 25 minutes, including 5 minutes reserved for opponent questions.
Oral opposition is also shared by all group members. Each group opposes the subsequent group, except for the last group, which gives opposition to the first one.
Written opposition report (approximately one page) submitted by email to course responsible before the presentations.
