C105010 Molecular Simulations in Engineering 3.0 3
Description Molecular simulation provides research guidelines and fundamental understandings for studying engineering problems and designing novel materials. The target material is modelled by a microscopic system which is constructed in the atomistic level. The simulations for such system are carried out on the computers based on the applied force field, and generate information that can be used in the future design. This course introduces the basic theories and tools in modern molecular simulations. Students from different majors can formulate simulation problems based on their expertise and interests.
