Humans had to carry out all their machining processes by hand for centuries. Even precision tools had to be maneuvered very carefully, inch by inch, by people holding the devices personally. That all ...

Optical systems employ a rich array of physical effects which are described by well-understood equations. However, for all but the simplest devices these equations are typically too complex to permit ...

Numerical analysis is the branch of mathematics devoted to the study of algorithms for the approximate solution of problems that often have no closed‐form answer. At its core, numerical analysis seeks ...

Our work in numerical and scientific computing involves the development, analysis and execution of computational algorithms to solve mathematical problems from science and engineering. Our faculty are ...
