Qualification Goals |
After completing the module, the students master the modelling and simulation of biological systems in space and time. They are able to independently derive models of biological processes, formulate them mathematically and simulate them numerically in the computer. The corresponding simulation codes can be designed and implemented independently. |
Content |
The content of the module includes: model scaling, dimensional analysis, dynamic system storage and flow modelling, spatiotemporal systems volume control model, spatio-temporal finite-difference simulation, spatiotemporal system particle methods, cellular automata and agent-based discrete systems, applications in diffusion, advection-diffusion, collective cell behavior, embryogenesis and tissue regeneration. |
Forms of Teaching and Learning |
2 SWS lectures and 2 SWS exercises as well as self-study. |
Applicability |
The module is a compulsory module for students of Computational Life Science in the Master's program Computational Modelling and Simulation. |
Prerequisites for the Assignment of Credit Points |
The credit points are awarded if the module examination is passed. For more than 10 registered students, the module examination consists of a written examination amounting to 120 minutes. For up to 10 registered students, it consists of an oral examination as individual examinations amounting to 30 minutes; this will be announced to the enrolled students at the end of the enrollment period. |
Credit Points and Grades |
This module allows for the earning of 5 credit points.
The module grade corresponds to the grade of the examination performance. |
Frequency of Offer |
The module is offered in each summer semester. |
Workload |
The workload is a total of 150 hours. |
Duration of Module |
The module takes one semester. |
