Introduction to modern computational methods for calculating thermodynamic, transport, and structural properties of materials. Computational chemistry, molecular simulation, and mesoscopic methods, ...

Classical computations rely on binary bits, which can be in either of the two states, 0 or 1. In contrast, quantum computing is based on qubits, which can be 0, 1, or a superposition or entanglement ...

The spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has undergone several mutations since the virus emerged in late 2019. The mutations ...

Researchers have developed a new mechanical model that simulates how whiskers bend within a follicle in response to an external force, paving the way toward better understanding of how whiskers ...

The course will be self-contained but will rely on continuum-based descriptions of the physical behavior of solids (CIV_ENV 417-1, or equivalent). Soft materials appear pervasively in Nature, in ...

Learn theory and fundamental principles of molecular simulation techniques nanomechanics and biomechanics. Apply molecular simulation tools to explain nanoscale solid and fluid mechanics phenomena ...
