Overview
An intensive introduction to asymptotic analysis and
perturbation techniques for solving mechanical, physical,
and engineering problems with small parameters. Includes
15 lectures + 15 tutorials covering methods such as:

• Regular & singular perturbations
• Multiple scales & averaging
• Matched asymptotic expansions
• Homogenization
• Topological derivative methods

Key Applications

• Mechanical processes with discontinuities, localization,
  and boundary layers
• Modeling vibration and heat-conduction phenomena
• Multi-scale solid mechanics

Prerequisites
Required: Mechanics, higher mathematics, basic knowledge
of mathematical models of physical phenomena (nonlinear
oscillations, heat conduction)
Recommended: Elements of mathematical physics,
analytical methods
