- Context and motivation of this Toolbox
Engineers are increasingly confronted with tasks of modelling multi-physical phenomena (fluid-structure interactions in the fields of transport and energy, electromagnetic - materials interactions for the characterisation of materials and in the field of microelectronics). In order to deal serenely with these questions a unique formulation of all the equations of continuum physics is necessary. The course aims to provide this formulation.
- Intended learning outcomes :
To teach students a uniform method of writing, independent of references to continuum physics (rational mechanics, electrodynamics, solid and fluid mechanics). In all these fields modern calculus codes are based on tensor writing of physics equations. The last part deals with illustrating equations of diffraction by experimental observation.
