MATH-500: Mathematical aspects of materials modelling

Summary

The simulation of materials properties from first principles is a key component of modern materials science research. We discuss common simulation techniques (such as plane-wave density-functional theory) from a mathematical perspective, outline robust algorithms and error estimation techniques.

Teaching & PhD PhD Students Niklas Frederik Schmitz, Anna Paulish, Bruno Ploumhans, Benedikt Menges Courses Error control in scientific modelling MATH-500 Errors are ubiquitous in computational science as neither models nor numerical techniques are perfect. With respect to eigenvalue problems motivated from materials science and atomistic modelling we discuss, implement and apply numerical techniques for e
