CS-457: Geometric computingThis course will cover mathematical concepts and efficient numerical methods for geometric computing. We will explore the beauty of geometry and develop algorithms to simulate and optimize 2D and 3D g
MATH-333: Selected chapters of geometryAprès avoir traité la théorie de base des courbes et surfaces dans le plan et l'espace euclidien,
nous étudierons certains chapitres choisis : surfaces minimales, surfaces à courbure moyenne constante
PHYS-428: Relativity and cosmology IIThis course is the basic introduction to modern cosmology. It introduces students to the main concepts and formalism of cosmology, the observational status of Hot Big Bang theory
and discusses major
MATH-422: Introduction to riemannian geometryLa géométrie riemannienne est un (peut-être le) chapitre central de la géométrie différentielle et de la géométriec ontemporaine en général. Le sujet est très riche et ce cours est une modeste introdu
MATH-512: Optimization on manifoldsWe develop, analyze and implement numerical algorithms to solve optimization problems of the form min f(x) where x is a point on a smooth manifold. To this end, we first study differential and Riemann
MATH-476: Optimal transportThe first part is devoted to Monge and Kantorovitch problems, discussing the existence and the properties of the optimal plan. The second part introduces the Wasserstein distance on measures and devel
CIVIL-522: Seismic engineeringThis course deals with the main aspects of seismic design and assessment of buildings including conceptual design. It covers different structural design and evaluation philosophies for new and existin
ME-331: Solid mechanicsModel the behavior of elastic, viscoelastic, and inelastic solids both in the infinitesimal and finite-deformation regimes.
MSE-326: Ceramic and colloidal processingThe course covers the production of ceramics and colloids from the basic scientific concepts and theories needed to understand the forming processes to the mechanisms and methods of sintering (firing)
MATH-123(b): GeometryThe course provides an introduction to the study of curves and surfaces in Euclidean spaces. We will learn how we can apply ideas from differential and integral calculus and linear algebra in order to
CIVIL-430: Concrete bridgesCe cours traite les principaux aspects de la conception et du dimensionnement des ponts en béton armé et précontraint. L'accent est mis sur les ponts poutres. Etude des aspects suivants : optimisation
