Computer simulation for materials physicists
Graduate course, Universität des Saarlandes, Materials science and engineering, 2023
Course content
The course was composed of 2h lecture and 2h handson tutorials per week.
- Monte Carlo simulation, basic principles
- Molecular dynamics, basic principles
- Solution of stochastic differential equations (Langevin dynamics)
- Focus projects that will depend on the interests of the participants
Course Objectives
The main emphasis of this course is to teach you how to write your own code and less to inform you how to use programs written by others. We support C++ and python. Furthermore, we will use a Linux cluster during our tutorial hours.
Tasks performed
- I handeled about a half of the lecture hours and 100% of the tutorial hours.
- I prepared mid-term exam questions
- I supervised two student for the final project:
- NANOINDENDATION OF MULTILAYERED Cu-Zr (BENGİSU AYDIN, MAHİMA HAQUE)
