Teaching Model for Computational Science and Engineering Programme

چکیده
Computational Science and Engineering is an inherently multidisciplinary field, the increasingly important partner of theory and experimentation in the development of knowledge. The Computer Architecture and Operating Systems department of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona has created a new innovative masters degree programme with the aim of introducing students to core concepts in this field such as large scale simulation and high performance computing. An innovative course model allows students without a computational science background to enter this arena. Students from different fields have already completed the first edition of the new course and positive feedback has been received from students and professors alike. The second edition is in development.

In this paper, we develop a mathematical model of sprinting in which anaerobicmetabolism is included. This model is simplified by considering the broad changes of energy leveland the cyclic variation associated with the strike pattern. We consider the effect of the centre of massto the overall energy balance along with force of resistance during initial motion of body. Results areobtained for t...

In this study, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) model was developed to evaluate ultraviolet disinfection applesauce reactor. To simulate UV reactors, three sets of equations, including hydrodynamics, radiation and species mass conservation were solved simultaneously. The Realizable k-e turbulence model and the discrete ordinate method were used to find the UV radiation profile through the r...
