Lecturers
Dr. Stefan Sandfeld, Akad. Rat, Dr. Nina Gunkelmann

Details
Vorlesung
1 cred.h, ECTS studies, ECTS credits: 1,5
nur Fachstudium, Sprache Englisch
Time and place: every 2. week Mon 12:45 - 14:15, CIP Pool WW; comments on time and place: Every even week: FEM 1 lectures on MONDAYS at 12.45-14.15 in the WW CIP pool, MuSim 1 tutorial on WEDNESDAYS at 13.45-15.15 in the pool 0.157-115. Every odd week: MuSim1 lectures on Mondays at 12.45-14.15 in the WW CIP pool, FEM 1 tutorials on Wednesdays at 13.45-15.15 in the pool 0.157-115. There will be NO MuSim1 L/T during the first two weeks (17-28 October). Instead there will a PYTHON course each week (you only have to take part in one of them). Please sign up for the Python courses at StudOn!
starting 31.10.2016

Fields of study
PF MWT-MA-WSI 1-2 (ECTS-Credits: 1,5)
WPF NT-MA ab 1 (ECTS-Credits: 1,5)
WPF MAP-S-CMP ab 3 (ECTS-Credits: 1,5)
WPF CE-MA-TA-CMS ab 1 (ECTS-Credits: 1,5)

Prerequisites / Organisational information
Prerequisite for this course is good knowledge of PYTHON.

If you haven't programmed in PYTHON yet you have to take part in our PYTHON introduction course "Scientific Programming with PYTHON (SciProgPy)" which will take place during the week before all lectures begin. For further details please refere to the UnivIS course "SciProPy".

Contents
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 (see above). 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.
