2 Scientific computing is a discipline concerned with the development and
study of numerical algorithms for solving mathematical problems that arise in various disciplines in science and engineering

3 Numerical methods are an essential part of an engineer’s life
They allow to solve a much wider range of physical/engineering problems than analytical methods do. Numerical methods are however only one part of the solution: a good physical understanding of the problem is essential. Numerical methods are the elementary pieces of more complex codes and software used for scientific simulation. Studying numerical methods allows one to - understand how more complex codes work - be able to modify an existing code or create a new one - understand the errors/limits introduced by the numerical simulation

27 Using Floating Point Numbers
Beware of meaningless precision! In 1424, Jamshid Masud al-Kashi published  = … …but noted that the error in computing the perimeter of a circle with a radius 600’000 times that of earth would be less than the thickness of a horse’s hair. Donald E. Knuth : Floating point arithmetic is by nature inexact, and it is not difficult to misuse it so that the computed answers consist almost entirely of “noise”. One of the principal problems of numerical analysis is to determine how accurate the results of certain numerical methods will be. At that time, the radius of the earth was not known exactly. The radius of the circle corresponding to the error quoted by Jamshid Masud (0.7mm) is 20 times larger than the half axis of the orbit of Pluto.

28 Using Floating Point Numbers
Never use equality between two floating point numbers !!!!!!!! Use a special method to compare them!!!!! (define an acceptable error for the specific problem)

Διάφορες πηγές μπορούν να προκαλέσουν σφάλματα στα αριθμητικά αποτελέσματα Πηγές σφαλμάτων: Μετρήσεις φυσικών ή χημικών συσκευών και μηχανισμών (δεδομένα που περιέχουν εγγενώς σφάλματα), ονομάζονται αρχικά σφάλματα. Σφάλμα του μαθηματικού προβλήματος ή σφάλμα της μαθηματικής περιγραφής. Προέρχεται από τη μετατροπή του προβλήματος σε μαθηματικό πρόβλημα, περιέχοντας απλοποιήσεις ή και παραλείψεις.

30 Accuracy and Precision
Accuracy refers to how closely a computed or measured value agrees with the true value, while precision refers to how closely individual computed or measured values agree with each other (Μέτρο της ικανότητας διάκρισης μεταξύ σχεδόν ίσων τιμών). a) inaccurate and imprecise b) accurate and imprecise c) inaccurate and precise d) accurate and precise

31 Four possible sources of errors
➡ Measurement error ➡ Modeling error ➡ Truncation error ➡ Round-off error

32 A. Measurement error ➡ Any instrument has a limit on its precision, and an experimental result is always obtained with a tolerance: e.g ± 0.1 cm B. Modeling error ➡ Difference between the real system and the simplified description used. ➡ Example of the bridge: representing the elements as homogeneous or with a simplified geometry.

33 C. Truncation error ➡ This error arises due to the discrete or iterative nature of the numerical methods used. ➡ For example, an iterative scheme can be developed to obtain the physical quantity G. - If the scheme is well-designed then G(n) approaches the true value of G0 when n→∞. - However, we always have to stop at a finite value of n=N. The truncation error is the difference between G(N) and G(∞). ➡ A truncation error also arises when approximating a continuous quantity by a discrete form or a derivative by a discrete limit:

34 D. Round-off error This error is intrinsic to the use of a computer. A computer does not use the real number but finite-precision numbers (e.g. some decimals are discarded.) The propagation of rounding errors from one floating point operation to the next is the most frequent source of numerical instabilities.

35 Sources of Numerical Errors
Round off error (σφάλμα στρογγυλοποίησης) Προκύπτει από την ανάγκη αναπαράστασης των αριθμών με πεπερασμένο πλήθος ψηφίων Truncation error (σφάλμα αποκοπής) Δημιουργείται από τον αλγόριθμο που χρησιμοποιείται και την προσέγγιση που επιλέγεται (κατά την αντικατάσταση μιας ακριβούς διαδικασίας υπολογισμού με μία προσεγγιστική)

36 Round off Error Caused by representing a number approximately

37 Rounding errors are random

38 Problems created by round off error
28 Americans were killed on February 25, 1991 by an Iraqi Scud missile in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. The patriot defense system failed to track and intercept the Scud. Why?

39 Problem with Patriot missile
Clock cycle of 1/10 seconds was represented in 24-bit fixed point register created an error of 9.5 x 10-8 seconds. The battery was on for 100 consecutive hours, thus causing an inaccuracy of The shift calculated in the ranging system of the missile was 687 meters. The target was considered to be out of range at a distance greater than 137 meters.

45 Why measure errors? 1) To determine the accuracy of numerical results.
2) To develop stopping criteria for iterative algorithms.

46 True Error (απόλυτο σφάλμα)
Defined as the difference between the true value in a calculation and the approximate value found using a numerical method etc. True Error = True Value – Approximate Value

47 Example—True Error The derivative, of a function can be
approximated by the equation, and If a) Find the approximate value of b) True value of c) True error for part (a)

50 Relative True Error (σχετικό απόλυτο σφάλμα)
Defined as the ratio between the true error, and the true value. True Error Relative True Error ( ) = True Value

51 Example—Relative True Error
Following from the previous example for true error, find the relative true error for at with From the previous example, Relative True Error is defined as as a percentage,

52 Approximate Error (προσεγγιστικό σφάλμα)
What can be done if true values are not known or are very difficult to obtain? Approximate error is defined as the difference between the present approximation and the previous approximation. Approximate Error ( ) = Present Approximation – Previous Approximation

56 Relative Approximate Error (σχετικό σφάλμα)

57 Example—Relative Approximate Error
For at , find the relative approximate error using values from and Solution: From Example 3, the approximate value of using and using Present Approximation – Previous Approximation

58 Example (cont.) Solution: (cont.) as a percentage,
Approximate Error Present Approximation as a percentage, Absolute relative approximate errors may also need to be calculated,

59 How is Absolute Relative Error used as a stopping criterion?
If where is a pre-specified tolerance, then no further iterations are necessary and the process is stopped. If at least m significant digits are required to be correct in the final answer, then

64 Problem conditioning and algorithm stability
The problem is ill-conditioned if a small perturbation in the data may produce a large difference in the result. The problem is well-conditioned otherwise. The algorithm is stable if its output is the exact result of a slightly perturbed input.

78 Taylor Series (1)

79 Taylor Series (2) To gain insight consider the mathematical formulation that is used widely in numerical methods - TAYLOR SERIES. A Taylor series :provides a means to predict a function value at one point in terms of the function value at and its derivatives at another point Some examples of Taylor series which you must have seen

80 General Taylor Series The general form of the Taylor series is given by provided that all derivatives of f(x) are continuous and exist in the interval [x, x+h] . As Archimedes would have said, “Give me the value of the function at a single point, and the value of all (first, second, and so on) its derivatives at that single point, and I can give you the value of the function at any other point”

81

82 Example—Taylor Series
Find the value of given that and all other higher order derivatives of at are zero. Solution:

83 Example (cont.) Since the higher order derivatives are zero,
Note that to find exactly, we only need the value of the function and all its derivatives at some other point, in this case

88 Error in Taylor Series The Taylor polynomial of order n of a function f(x) with (n+1) continuous derivatives in the domain [x, x+h] is given by where the remainder is given by where that is, c is some point in the domain [x, x+h]

89 Example—error in Taylor series
The Taylor series for at point is given by It can be seen that as the number of terms used increases, the error bound decreases and hence a better estimate of the function can be found. How many terms would it require to get an approximation of e1 within a magnitude of true error of less than 10-6.
