TMA4195 Mathematical Modelling - Fall 2019

The course description can be found here.

07.06.2019 Welcome to Mathematical Modelling. Use the links to the left hand side for information about the course.
03.09.2019 Unfortunately, lectures today are cancelled due to sickness.
03.09.2019 No exercise class on Friday (06.09.19), but extra office hour with Ola, 14.00-15.30, at room 1056, Sentralbygg 2.
06.09.2019 Lectures as usual on Monday.
10.09.2019 The reference "group" meets me on Tuesday 17th of September. Constructive critique or more positive feedback are welcome. Se under Reference group to the left, and send a mail, or talk, to Erik Andre.
11.09.2019 Lecture notes for this week will be published Thursday.
03.10.2019 The project part of the course lasts for three weeks and starts 28.10. The project counts for 25% of the final grade, and is not mandatory (thus, a score of 75% in total for the final grade is the maximum for those not participating). The project is executed in groups of approximately 5 students per group. Please talk together, and preferably make groups as you please. Please mail me the names of people in a group you create. Of course, if you prefer, just send me your name, and I can assemble groups for you.
07.10.2019 The reference group will meet with me on Tuesday 15.10. I am grateful for any feedback concerning the lectures, exercises, web-page, etc. Send a mail, or talk to reference group member Erik André Jakobsen, erikaja@stud.ntnu.no.
08.10.2019 As mentioned, the project is about underground storage of CO2. That is the "S-part" in CCS, carbon capture and storage. We are fortunate to have the first person in the world who launched the CCS concept, Chief Scientist Erik Lindeberg, giving us a lecture at the startup of the project, Monday October 28.
10.10.2019 For a brief and general introduction to CCS, please read the article published today in Gemini: https://gemini.no/2019/10/dette-ma-du-vite-om-ccs-karbonfangst-og-lagring/ . You can choose either the Norwegian or English version.
11.10.2019 The project will be published 24.10.2019, with startup 28.10. Registration deadline (send mail to me) is 24.10.. See message above.
14.10.2019 Just for the record: The final exam takes place November 28.
24.10.2019 The project has been posted, see project page. The project will be presented on Monday 28.11.
24.10.2019 Groups and their numbering can be found here.
28.10.2019 The deadline for the project is somewhat early since we want to do the group presentations the week before the last week of teaching. However, if you rather have group presentations Monday, 18. November, and consequently have only Tuesday 19. November for repetition, it is fine with me. Give me feedback on this topic, and I will postpone the deadline if many of you are in favor of this arrangement.
28.10.2019 Some of you might not know who their group members are. In that case, please mail me, and we'll fix it. Or, try too Google your team mates names, and possibly find contact information.
29.10.2019 Added list of errata on project page. The project description has now a version number and is updated. Thank's to those that pointed out the mistakes.
29.10.2019 Xavier's presentation of the project has been added to the project page.
01.11.2019 The document Fluid properties has been added to the project page, and can be used as a reference for the numerical simulations in the project.
03.11.2019 Class is as usual in R10 on Monday.
08.11.2019
20.11.2019 Note that the exam takes place 15.00-19.00 on Thursday November 28.
20.11.2019 I (Dag) am available for questions at my office (1050, Sentralbygg 2) 10.00-14.00 on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before the exam.
20.11.2019 I need to have a third meeting with the reference group. Please write to Erik André Jakobsen, erikaja@stud.ntnu.no, for any input before Tuesday November 26.
28.11.2019 A solution proposal for today's exam can be found here.
29.11.2019 I hope yesterdays exam went well. Here are the scores given by Xavier for the modelling project.
