One week after semester end: Project report
The report should follow the recommendations in the template (Project report template, in LaTeX or Word) and in the document "Advices for scientific writing". Upload the report as pdf.
Upload the Comsol file(s), without mesh and results, as explained in the following link: https://www.comsol.com/support/knowledgebase/1238
- Mesh > Clear built mesh
- Study > Clear solutions
To be defined: Final exam
The exam is open-book, it is scheduled from 09h15 to 12h15 (usually), in room to be defined.
