Learning outcomes
Knowledge
Basic knowledge on matrix algebra and linear dynamical systems, on the concepts of stability, equilibrium, first integral, on finite difference equations. Specific knowledge on qualitative theory of dynamical systems, especially in the plane, on conservative systems with Newton. Lagrange and Hamilton formalism, on discretization of ordinary differential euqations, on non-integrable and chaotic dynamical systems. Significant examples of applications to problems in mechanics, in economics, and in model problems.
Assessment criteria of knowledge
In the written exam (3 hours, 3 exercices) the student must demonstrate his/her knowledge of the course material and to solve computationally simple problems. During the oral exam the student must be able to demonstrate his/her knowledge of the course content and logical structure, i.e. give proofs.

Methods:

  • Final oral exam
  • Final written exam
  • Periodic written tests

Teaching methods
