Veranstaltung Zeit Ort Bemerkung
Vorlesung Tuesday 8:30-10:00 224.3 Start: 10.10.23 (weekly)

Inhalt der Vorlesung

We will consider several applications, such as traffic flow, supply chains and pedestrian flow. We will cover

  • modelling at different scales, e.g. micro- and macroscopic models
  • solution concepts, in particular for networks of conservation laws
  • corresponding numerical approximations

There will be one lecture per week and one tutorial every two weeks. The course is inteded for master students. For the exam admission some smaller programming tasks have to be solved.

Language: English or German.

If you are interested in the course or would like more information, please contact me.
