Semester assignment 2026
The semester assignments will consist of one computer exercise. Three problems are given and you should choose one of them. You are asked to write and execute computer programs in order to find the appropriate solutions to the posted physical problems. You will be asked to hand it your solution as a report written in LaTeX.The computational language that we recommened is Python, but you may also use Julia or a compiled language (like C, C++ or Fortran). The important point is not the programming language used, but instead that you should are exposed to the use of computers for solving scientific problems!
Your project will not be graded, but you have to pass it to be allowed to take the exam. In other words, the project is a compulsory activity of this class.
Problem sets
You should choose one of the above problem sets!Supervision
The following time slots will mainly be allocated the numerical projects, but the other exercise hours can also be used to ask questions about the numerical project:- Tue. Feb. 10, 12:15-14:00
- Wed. Feb. 18, 16:15-18:00
Final report
- The final (LaTeX) report for the projects is due on : Feb. 28, 2026.
- It should contain sufficient details and results to fully explain what you did to obtain the resutls you present..
- In the report you do not have to review theory in the book. However, some of the central formula that you use it is still useful to include.
- The project should be submitted in via Blackboard (to be set up)!
