Introduction to Numerical Computation

Introduction to Numerical Computation

This is an exhaustive PDF written by Lars Elden, Linde Wittmeyer-Koch, and Hans Bruun Nielsen. In fact, this really is an exemplary introduction to numerical computation. The text begins with the basics like error analysis and computer arithmetic, which gives a very solid ground for the origin and handling of numerical errors. It proceeds further to explain more basic topics related to function evaluation, solutions of nonlinear equations, and interpolation techniques. Next, it describes procedures for improving numerical estimates using differentiation and Richardson extrapolation. This is followed by full details of integration, systems of linear equations, and approximation. Finally, ordinary differential equations complete a thorough course of study that will prepare the reader with both the theory and practice that will serve in carrying out numerical computations.

Numerical Computation by Peter Bastian

Numerical Topics in Fluid Dynamics Computation!!! Peter Bastian Authored - This PDF covers advanced numerical computation topics but puts more emphasis on the solution of computational fluid dynamics. The book starts with the modeling of immiscible fluid flow in a composite porous medium, thus laying down the basics for the equations of multiphase fluid flow. It then provides fully implicit methods that have been used to find the finite volume discretization of systems for complex algebraic equations. Two important chapters are the parallelization methods that result in higher productivity of computation and the UG framework used for carrying out grid computations. Numerical results are then presented, which allow deriving some conclusions concerning practical applications and performance. The document will be particularly useful to researchers and engineers studying computational fluid dynamics and related numerical modeling problems.

Applied Numerical Computing

Applied Numerical Computing

Prof. L. Vandenberghe's lecture note is on applied numerical computing but brings out the practical application aspect. The text covers most areas of numerical linear algebra, nonlinear optimization nonlinear least squares, introduction to floating-point numbers, and rounding errors that are to be needed for understanding the issues of numerical precision. Examples are drawn from signal and image processing, control systems, and machine learning, among other areas, to indicate how these numerical methods are actually applied. This resource aims to fill the gap between theory and practice by providing a practical method for solving computational problems.

Numerical Methods for Computational Science and Engineering

Numerical Methods for Computational Science and Engineering

The resource described here is an overview of numerical methods important in the study of computational science and engineering. The text starts off with Computing with Matrices and Vectors, foundational elements in many algorithms. The note moves forward and explains Direct Methods for Linear Systems of Equations and Direct Methods for Linear Least Squares Problems, important problem-solving aspects in linear algebra. The Filtering Algorithms for data processing are reviewed, while Data Interpolation and Data Fitting in 1D discuss ways of approximating onedimensional data. Approximation of Functions in 1D and Numerical Quadrature introduce the techniques on function approximation and integration. It also discusses Iterative Methods for Non-Linear Systems of Equations and Eigenvalues-a critical topic needed for solving complex systems. It finally includes Numerical Integration and Structure Preserving Integration, fundamental to perform numerical calculations with appropriate accuracy in scientific computing.
