Participation in exercises is mandatory and is controlled by the teacher. One excused absence is allowed. The substition for the excused absence have to be arranged by the student and agreed upon by the teacher.
Aims
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with basic approaches to modeling for the design, analysis and optimization of industrial and energy units (processes) and equipment. They will then be able to present the results of these model designs at a sufficient level using presentations, text, graphs and illustrations.
After completing the course, students will be able to do basic work in the presented softwares and further develop their skill in their usage if interested.
