Learning Outcomes

KNOWLEDGE: Students will be able to describe and explain the topics listed in the 'content' section. SKILLS: Students will be able to solve linear and non-linear problems using the methods of applied mathematics, use standard software, and write scientific texts. ABILITIES: Students will be able to create their own mathematical programs in order to empirically evaluate short and long term trends in a case study of one of the application areas (i.a. electricity, CO2, transportation, water, hydrogen, energy systems).

Content

- Introduction to standard software - Repetition: linear programming - Introduction to game theory - Lagrange-method for solving optimization problems - Flow theory - Equilibrium/complementarity modeling using Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions - Mixed integer programming
