SIMULATION MODELING\nLECTURER: Dr.D. Elisephane IRANKUNDA\nASSESSMENT:\n• Attendances 15%\n• Continuous Assessment 15%\n• Final Exam 70%\n• Total 100%\n\nCourse Description\nIntroduction to Modeling and Simulation (IM/S) provides an introduction into modeling and simulation approaches, covering continuum methods (e.g. finite element analysis), atomistic simulation (e.g. molecular dynamics) as well as quantum mechanics. Atomistic and molecular simulation methods are new tools that allow one to predict functional material properties such as Young\'s modulus, strength, thermal properties, color, and others directly from the chemical makeup of the material by solving Schroedinger\'s equation (quantum mechanics). This approach is an exciting new paradigm that allows to design materials and structures from the bottom up — to make materials greener, lighter, stronger, more energy efficient, less expensive; and to produce them from abundant building blocks. These tools play an increasingly important role in modern engineering! In this subject you will get hands-on training in both the fundamentals and applications of these exciting new methods to key engineering problems.\nRecitations\nRecitations will illustrate and/or expand concepts presented in lectures by working through numerical example problems, or by showing how to use the simulation codes. Material covered in recitations is often related to the problem sets and is considered part of the subject content, so regular attendance is advisable.\nHomework\nWe will assign a total of approximately 6 problem sets, focused on simulation work and data analysis. Each problem set is designed to build upon the material covered in the preceding lectures and recitations. The homework assignments will be prepared by teams consisting of three students. In this case, each team will hand in one solution, with the names of team members who contributed as indicated on the cover page. The problem sets worked out by a team of students typically cover more complex problem that require numerical simulation.\nDue dates for problem sets are firm and homework assignments will be corrected and handed back (with solutions) no later than two lectures after the due date. You may use any material to complete the solution. However, it is important that you properly reference the material used (e.g. books, website, journal articles).\nCalendar\nSES # TOPICS KEY DATES\nPart I: Particle and Continuum Methods\n1 Introduction \n2 Basic molecular dynamics HW 1 out\n3 Property calculation I \n4 Property calculation II \n5 How to model chemical interactions I HW 1 due\n6 How to model chemical interactions II HW 2 out\n7 Application to modeling brittle materials \n8 Reactive potentials and applications I \n9 Reactive potentials and applications II HW 2 due\n10 Applications to biophysics and bionanomechanics I \n11 Applications to biophysics and bionanomechanics II HW 3 out\n12 Review session: Preparation for Quiz 1 \nPart II: Quantum Mechanical Methods\n13 It\'s a quantum world: The theory of quantum mechanics \n14 Quantum mechanics (QM): Practice makes perfect \n15 From many-body to single-particle: Quantum modeling of molecules HW 4 out\n16 Application of quantum mechanics to solar thermal fuels \n17 More QM modeling for solar thermal fuels, plus a little H-storage \n18 From atoms to solids HW 4 due\nHW 5 out\n19 Quantum modeling of solids: Basic properties \n20 Advanced properties of materials: What else we can do? \n21 Some review and introduction to solar photovoltaics (PV) HW 5 due\nHW 6 out\n22 Quiz 2 \n23 Solar photovoltaics \n24 A bit more solar PV, some verification and validation and a few concluding thoughts HW 6 due\n\n
