Introduction
The teaching is organised as sessions where the subject material is presented, and as sessions where the students solve problems using analytical and/or numerical methods. Between these sessions, the students should work individually with literature studies and problem solving.
In the last, specialised part, the students are required to complete and present a rather extensive individual project involving theoretical and practical/implementational aspects.
Required preliminary courses
An individual, oral examination. The examination will address both general topics from within the course and the specific project developed by the student.
The oral examination cannot be appealed.
Learning outcomes
Pass or fail.
Teaching and learning methods
Two examiners. External examiner is used periodically.
Course requirements
Introductory module:
- Principles of modelling and derivation of mathematical models
- Analysis of ordinary differential equations (ODEs)
- Linear partial differential equations (PDEs)
- Prominent results from functional analysis and their application to ODEs and PDEs
- Numerical methods for computing of solutions of PDEs
Functional analysis:
- Completeness for normed spaces
- Hilbert spaces, compact and diagonalisable operators
- Theory of topological vector spaces
- Test functions, distributions and the Fourier transform
- Sobolev spaces and fundamental solutions of partial differential equations
Biosystems:
- Mathematical models for biological systems
- Analytical and numerical methods for simulation of system response
- Actuators and sensors for stimulation and measurements of biological systems
- Interaction of biological and measurement system
Modern physics:
- Monte Carlo techniques
- Splines and other expansion techniques
- Applications of expansions in spherical harmonics
- Numerical problems in general relativity and quantum physics
- Manifolds with geometric structures central to physics and engineering.
Within all specializations, the content may be adjusted to accommodate for the research area of each PhD candidate.
Assessment
Assessment of placement. The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course, the cooperation agreement with specification of the learning outcomes and the formative assessment made of the student during the practical training period.
Students’ practical training can only be assessed if their attendance is sufficiently high (90%). See ‘assessment of practical training’ in the main part of the programme description for more information.
Permitted exam materials and equipment
Not relevant.
Grading scale
Pass/fail
Examiners
The midway and final assessments are made by the practical training supervisor and the contact lecturer at the university. The final decision on whether to award a pass or fail grade is made by the university.
