Studieveileder/Information about studies
Jeg
er studieveileder ved Linjen for fysikk og matematikk, fortrinnsvis for
studieretningen for industriell matematikk.
EDUCATIONAL INTERESTS
Industrial mathematics programs
My educational interests are mainly connected to the Industrial Mathematics Program at NTNU. This program, which is part of the Physics and Mathematics Engineering education has been going on since 1982. Studieretningen for industriell matematikk is a description of the program in Norwegian.
Currently about 40 students enroll in the program each year.
Mathematical modelling
The mathematical modelling course was introduced at the very beginning of the Industrial Mathematics program and has been following the program since then. A description of the course and some of its philosophy may be found on some of the Mathematical Modelling home pages (See the department page)
We are interested in exchanging course
material, and in particular, learn about case studies that could be applied in
the present course.
Fourier Analysis
The Fourier Analysis course is for graduate or final year undergraduate students and contains central topics ranging from the classical theory, theory of distributions, sampling theory, discrete Fourier transform and FFT. Also for this course educational examples and course material are of interest.
ECMI
The institute is a member of European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry. For more information please consult the ECMI Home Page. The ECMI Modelling Week in Trondheim 2-11 July 1999 was a great event!
RESEARCH INTERESTS
"The basic law of ocean
waves is the apparent lack of any law" (Lord Rayleigh)
My main research interests for many years in the offshore consulting community has been ocean waves, mostly topics related to the analysis of directional ocean waves, wave measurements, wave statistics and climatology. Over the past years, the understanding of how a Synthetic Aperture Radar sees ocean waves has required a lot of effort. More details are available from the list of publication in the CV.
