The aim of this course is to introduce the basic ideas for understanding the dynamics of continuum systems, by studying specific examples from a range of different fields. Our goal is to explain the general principles, and also to illustrate them via important physical effects. In addition to that, a parallel goal of this course is to give you an introduction to mathematical modeling.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
