MAT/08 - NUMERICAL ANALYSIS
Period
Semester 2 dal Mar 3, 2025 al Jun 13, 2025.
Courses Single
Authorized
Learning objectives
The course will discuss, from both the analytic and computational points of view, the principal basic numerical methods for the solution of nonlinear equations, linear systems, polynomial data fitting and numerical quadrature. The course has a Laboratory component where the methods studied will be implemented using the MATLAB programming platform (using either the official Matlab from Mathworks or else the open source version GNU OCTAVE). At the end of the course the student will be expected to demonstrate that s/he has attained a level of competence in the computational and computer aspects of the course subject, as well as the ability to recognize which algorithms are appropriate for basic problems of numerical analysis.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Linear algebra, differential calculus in one variable, integral calculus.
Program
The course will discuss the following topics:
* Methods for finding zeros of functions (bisection, secant, Newton and its variants)
* Floating point numbers and error theory
* Methods for solving linear systems (conditioning, Gaussian elimination, LU factorization, Cholesky factorization, matrix norms)
* Polynomial interpolation and piecewise linear interpolation
* Quadrature rules, simple and composite (Rectangle Rule, Trapezoidal Rule, Simpson’s Rule, Romberg extrapolation)
It is expected that there will be a tutor with the Laboratory sessions.
Bibliography
Didactic methods
The teaching will be delivered in 52 classroom hours, of which 20 in the computer lab.
Learning assessment procedures
The purpose of the exam is to see if the student is able to recall and reproduce the theory of basic Numerical Analysis and knows how to use Computer resources for possible further investigation. Moreover, the student must show that s/he knows how to program in the specific software introduced during the course. The exam will consist of two parts. The first part will be held in a Laboratory where the student will be given two hours to individually implement the numerical methods necessary for the solution of the assigned questions. The questions will be based on the entire course material. A pass will be given for a mark of 18/30 or higher. To be admitted to the second part of the exam, the oral, it is required to have first passed the written part. Marks for the written part will remain valid until, and not after, the beginning of the following semester. The oral exam will be based on the topics discussed during the classroom lectures. The final course mark will be the average of the marks for the two parts of the exam.
Evaluation criteria
To pass the exam you will have to demonstrate:
* knowing and understanding the fundamentals of machine numbers
* knowing and understanding the fundamental methods of numerical solving of nonlinear equations
* knowing and understanding the fundamental direct methods of numerical solving of systems linear
* know and understand the methods for polynomial approximation
* know and understand the classical methods of numerical quadrature
* have an adequate capacity for analysis and synthesis and abstraction
* know how to apply this knowledge to solve problems and exercises, knowing how to argue his reasoning with mathematical rigor.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final grade is the average of the scores for the laboratory and the oral exam.

Sustainable Development Goals - SDGs
This initiative contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN Agenda 2030. More information on sustainabilityType D and Type F activities
Le attività formative di tipologia D sono a scelta dello studente, quelle di tipologia F sono ulteriori conoscenze utili all’inserimento nel mondo del lavoro (tirocini, competenze trasversali, project works, ecc.). In base al Regolamento Didattico del Corso, alcune attività possono essere scelte e inserite autonomamente a libretto, altre devono essere approvate da apposita commissione per verificarne la coerenza con il piano di studio. Le attività formative di tipologia D o F possono essere ricoperte dalle seguenti attività.
1. Insegnamenti impartiti presso l'Università di Verona
Comprendono gli insegnamenti sotto riportati e/o nel Catalogo degli insegnamenti (che può essere filtrato anche per lingua di erogazione tramite la Ricerca avanzata).
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: se l'insegnamento è compreso tra quelli sottoelencati, lo studente può inserirlo autonomamente durante il periodo in cui il piano di studi è aperto; in caso contrario, lo studente deve fare richiesta alla Segreteria, inviando a carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it il modulo nel periodo indicato.
2. Attestato o equipollenza linguistica CLA
Oltre a quelle richieste dal piano di studi, per gli immatricolati dall'A.A. 2021/2022 vengono riconosciute:
- Lingua inglese: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza superiore a quello richiesto dal corso di studio (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
- Altre lingue e italiano per stranieri: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza a partire da A2 (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
Tali cfu saranno riconosciuti, fino ad un massimo di 6 cfu complessivi, di tipologia F se il piano didattico lo consente, oppure di tipologia D. Ulteriori crediti a scelta per conoscenze linguistiche potranno essere riconosciuti solo se coerenti con il progetto formativo dello studente e se adeguatamente motivati.
Gli immatricolati fino all'A.A. 2020/2021 devono consultare le informazioni che si trovano qui.
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: richiedere l’attestato o l'equipollenza al CLA e inviarlo alla Segreteria Studenti - Carriere per l’inserimento dell’esame in carriera, tramite mail: carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it
3. Competenze trasversali
Scopri i percorsi formativi promossi dal TALC - Teaching and learning center dell'Ateneo, destinati agli studenti regolarmente iscritti all'anno accademico di erogazione del corso https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: non è previsto l'inserimento dell'insegnamento nel piano di studi. Solo in seguito all'ottenimento dell'Open Badge verranno automaticamente convalidati i CFU a libretto. La registrazione dei CFU in carriera non è istantanea, ma ci saranno da attendere dei tempi tecnici.
4. Contamination lab
Il Contamination Lab Verona (CLab Verona) è un percorso esperienziale con moduli dedicati all'innovazione e alla cultura d'impresa che offre la possibilità di lavorare in team con studenti e studentesse di tutti i corsi di studio per risolvere sfide lanciate da aziende ed enti. Il percorso permette di ricevere 6 CFU in ambito D o F. Scopri le sfide: https://www.univr.it/clabverona
ATTENZIONE: Per essere ammessi a sostenere una qualsiasi attività didattica, incluse quelle a scelta, è necessario essere iscritti all'anno di corso in cui essa viene offerta. Si raccomanda, pertanto, ai laureandi delle sessioni di dicembre e aprile di NON svolgere attività extracurriculari del nuovo anno accademico, cui loro non risultano iscritti, essendo tali sessioni di laurea con validità riferita all'anno accademico precedente. Quindi, per attività svolte in un anno accademico cui non si è iscritti, non si potrà dar luogo a riconoscimento di CFU.
5. Periodo di stage/tirocinio
Oltre ai CFU previsti dal piano di studi (verificare attentamente quanto indicato sul Regolamento Didattico) qui si possono trovare le informazioni su come attivare lo stage.
Verificare nel regolamento quali attività possono essere di tipologia D e quali di tipologia F.
Si ricorda, inoltre, che per i tirocini attivati dal 1 ottobre 2024 sarà possibile riconoscere le ore eccedenti in termini di crediti di tipologia D, limitatamente alle sole esperienze di tirocinio svolte presso enti ospitanti esterni all’Ateneo.
