Aims

The current ATM focuses on two methods of computer simulation, the Monte Carlo method and Molecular Dynamics simulations. The aim of this module is to give an insight into theoretical foundations and the practical work of these two methods.

Contents

Each day of the two-days program starts with lectures in the morning, followed by computer simulations at the computer pool during the afternoon.
