This courseware teaches numerical methods for interpolation and nonlinear equations to engineering undergraduates. It is dedicated to reaching a large audience of undergraduates through its holistic but customized approach.
Holistically, the resources review background information; present numerical methods through notes, presentations, simulations and assessments; show how what they learned is applied in real life; tell stories to illustrate special topics and pitfalls; and give historical perspectives.
From a customized perspective, the user can choose a major of choice - Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, General, Industrial or Mechanical Engineering. Mathematica is one of the mathematical packages used to illustrate algorithms, convergence and pitfalls of the numerical methods.
All the simulations in the courseware are done in Mathematica.
