Lectures:


Inhalt:

These lectures provide a broad overview of simulation methods operating on length scales from the atomistic to the continuum scale. Simulation methods introduced include Molecular Dynamics, equilibrium and kinetic Monte Carlo simulation, mesoscopic methods such as e.g. Dislocation Dynamics and the Phase Field method, and continuum-level modeling of materials behavior in Finite Element simulations. The introduction of methods operating on different scales is complemented by a discussion of multiscale approaches, i.e. the linking of models operating on different scales. For most of the tutorials ‘Python’ will be used as programming language, which will be introduced in a separate short course. This course is accompanied by practicals where the students will have the opportunity to numerically implement ‘one-scale’ models in a hands-on manner. This will be complemented by examples of information passing between different scales and the construction of simple multiscale models.

Lernziele und Kompetenzen:

Students will develop a fundamental understanding for the role of computer-based simulation methods in modern materials science. They obtain a detailed overview over most commonly used simulation methods and of their application. They learn the practical realization of simulation tasks based on analysis of materials science problems. Through foundamental understanding of theory they will understand the theory behind simulation methods. They will be able to develop models and to work on novel problems.
