FSF3890 Projects within Industrial and Applied Mathematics 5.0 credits

The mathematical methods and theoretical frameworks depends on the industrial problem, and the topics may change from year to year and have different focus depending on which projects that are selected.

The student should demonstrate the ability to:

• Apply relevant knowledge and skills to a given industrial project within applied mathematics,
• Collect additional knowledge and information necessary for the completion of the project
• Work cooperatively in a group towards solving problems in the project
• Select appropriate mathematical tools and models to address industrial problems
• Analyze the models; explain, motivate, and discuss consequences of assumptions and approximations
• Communicate professionally and present scientific results, by writing technical reports, and by giving oral presentations.

The course is intended mainly for PhD students in Mathematics and in Applied and Computational Mathematics.

A literature study on the subject is required. Reading can also be proposed by the examiner.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• HEM1 - Home assignments, 5.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

The project is reported both in writing and orally in English or in Swedish.
