The course aims to provide the basic aspects of numerical approximation and efficient certified solution of parametrized PDEs for computational mechanics problems (heat and mass transfer, linear elasticity, viscous and potential flows).

In this course we present certified reduced basis (RB) approximation and associated a posteriori error estimation for rapid and reliable solution of parametrized partial differential equations (PDEs). The focus is on rapidly convergent Galerkin approximations on a subspace spanned by ``snapshots''; rigorous and sharp a posteriori error estimators for the outputs/quantities of interest; efficient selection of quasi-optimal samples in general parameter domains; and Offline-Online computational procedures for rapid calculation in the many-query and real-time contexts. We develop the RB methodology for a wide range of (coercive and non-coercive) elliptic and parabolic PDEs with several examples drawn from heat transfer, elasticity and fracture, acoustics, and fluid dynamics. We introduce the concept of affine and non-affine parametric dependence, some elements of approximation and algebraic stability. Finally, we consider application of RB techniques to parameter estimation, optimization, optimal control, and a comparison with other reduced order techniques, like Proper Orthogonal Decomposition.

Some tutorials are prepared for the course based on FEniCS and Python (and/or Matlab). Lecture notes, slides and reading material will be provided during the classes in a digital repository.
