ADVANCED COMPUTATIONAL METHODS IN ATOMISTIC MODELLING OF MATERIALS
Hanoi University of Technology, 7-8 September 2009
Hanoi University of Technology
|
The Short course is held at the campus of Hanoi University of Technology.
The two-day course on CMS aims to provide a general knowledge on state of the art of different modern simulation techniques for modelling materials properties at nano-scale.
Computer facility requirement for these courses: PC-Linux cluster and/or workstations with UNIX platform and a minimum memory of each processor of 1Gb.
