Literate Programming Examples for Chemical Engineering Analysis

Matthew Wilhelm, Chenyu Wang, Matthew Stuber

This repository contains a series of supplemental notebooks intended for use in courses centered around application of numerical methods with a chemical engineering context. This content was originally developed for the junior level, Chemical Engineering Analysis course at the University of Connecticut.

This original course made use of Dorfman and Daotidis's "Numerical Methods with Chemical Engineering Applications" as a primary textbook. A list of the chapters of Dorfman and Daoutidis that correspond to each tutorial is provided below. We should, however, note that the enclosed material was design to be used in a stand-alone fashion and may be readily integrated into other courses.

• Tutorial #0 (Introduction to Matlab/Julia) - N/A
• Tutorial #1 (Linear Algebraic Systems) - Chapter 2
• Tutorial #2 (Nonlinear Algebraic Systems) - Chapter 3
• Tutorial #3 (ODEs, Initial Value Problems) - Chapter 4
• Tutorial #4 (ODEs, Boundary Value Problems) - Chapter 6
• Tutorial #5 (Partial Differential Equations) - Chapter 7
• Tutorial #6 (Optimization) - N/A
