Numerical Computation for Mechanical Engineers
This note introduces elementary programming concepts including variable types, data structures, and flow control. After an introduction to linear algebra and probability, it covers numerical methods relevant to mechanical engineering, including approximation, integration, solution of linear and nonlinear equations, ordinary differential equations, and deterministic and probabilistic approaches.
