Class Objectives
/Class Outline
Structure and dynamics in material control its property. This class will discuss the theories of material structures, appearance of the structures, as well as their dynamics. In the first half, the theoretical methods in the field of nonlinear dynamics are discussed. In the last half, computational physics is introduced, where some examples of computer simulation are explained along with experiments and theories.
