Informal finite element course.
Hi All, Having been extensively lobbied over many months, and also being aware that I am explaining basic finite element repeatedly to different people, I have decided to cave in to the pressure and actually do something a bit more organised. Following very loosely the model of Colin's FEEC course, I think the plan would be to do a session of 90 minutes or so perhaps once a week for a few weeks until we have got far enough. The target market is anyone who doesn't yet know how to derive the finite element method for systems like Poisson, the wave equation, advection diffusion etc. We would cover the basic theory of finite element, and matters such as quadrature, boundary conditions, Galerkin orthogonality and so on. At this stage I am just gauging interest, so please reply (to list) indicating if you would be interested. This will enable me to work out whether its worth doing and where I should do it.

Hi, I am also interested and would like to participate if it is not too much of a hassle to webcast the lectures. Cheers, Rod On Tue, Oct 29, 2013 at 10:52 AM, David Ham <David.Ham@imperial.ac.uk>wrote:

I would be interested too. Lawrence
Would also be interested. On 29/10/13 19:28, Lawrence Mitchell wrote:

Dear all, This morning we managed to record a short section of audio and video from the access grid room onto Panoptico, which is college's lecture recording system. I think we're therefore ready to go with the informal finite element course. This means we need to do it in WPL 3.01, which has the disadvantage that the whiteboards are less than amazing, but it will do. The second disadvantage of WPL 3.01 is that it's booked a hell of a lot of the time. At this stage I could book the room from 1030 until 1200 this Thursday. Please ANSWER NOW whether this is a good time for the first lecture. For those of you not physically located at Imperial, the plan is to record the lectures and make them available on line. Hopefully the first lecture will be uploaded late on Thursday. Regards, David On 29 October 2013 15:52, David Ham <David.Ham@imperial.ac.uk> wrote:

WFM too. Have we concluded that the video is good enough and we don't need to faff with tethered recording on my DSLR? Florian

Thursday morning is fine for me.
