Computational Science is now well established as a third route to scientific discovery, sitting between and bridging tradional Theoretical and Experimental techniques. The discipline now has many books, journals, conferences, and even Nobel Prizes. Practicioners, from Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Maths and Physics are increasingly present in research labs and in industry. The tools form an important component of modern engineering practice.
A major value of Computational Physics is that many complex or non-linear phenomena can only be studied using numerical techniques. Many of the problems facing the modern world (eg. pollution, climate, etc) involve such complexity.
This course aims to provide an environment for you to learn Computational Physics techniques in the specific topic of Fourier Transforms and to understand some practical applications.
