Computational Heat Transfer: Finite Elements

← Back to Teaching

COM-728M.Sc./D.Sc. level

This advanced course develops the numerical treatment of heat-transfer problems using the Finite Element Method. It covers vector calculus, variational formulations, interpolation, assembly, boundary conditions, stability and convergence for one- and two-dimensional thermal problems. Theory is paired with implementation exercises and a final computational project.
