After the student receives approval on the curricular unit, he should be able to:

• Identify partial differential equations that appropriately model relevant problems, including their respective initial and/or boundary conditions.
• Understand the theoretical aspects associated with the analysed numerical methods, specifically their convergence criteria.
• Identify and apply numerical methods suitable for each proposed problem.
• Computationally implement the techniques and numerical methods taught using free software and understand its numerical results in the context of the applications.
