CAREER: Computational Approaches to Materials Properties and Engineering at the Nanometer Scale

9502586 Brenner这个职业补助金包含研究和教育重点，解决计算机建模技术在材料科学和工程问题中的应用。研究部分集中在一个特定的领域，即在纳米尺度上对固体力学特性的基本理解的发展，并利用这种理解来选择适当的尖端形状和施加应力来机械地构建特定的纳米尺度结构。教育部分将通过发展研究生和本科生的计算机应用课程，包括通过计算机实验室的实践经验，拓宽本系在理论和建模方面的课程。这项职业补助金包括研究和教育重点，解决计算机建模技术在材料科学和工程中的应用问题。研究部分侧重于一个特定的领域，即对固体力学特性的基本理解的发展，并利用这种理解来选择适当的尖端形状和施加应力来机械地构建特定的结构。这一切都将发生在数十或数百个原子的长度范围内。教育部分将通过发展研究生和本科生的计算机应用课程，包括通过计算机实验室的实践经验，拓宽本系在理论和建模方面的课程。＊＊＊

9502586 Brenner This CAREER grant contains both research and educational thrusts that address the application of computer modeling techniques to problems in materials science and engineering. The research component focuses on a particular area, namely the development of a fundamental understanding of mechanical properties of solids at the nanometer scale, and the use of this understanding to choose appropriate tip shapes and applied stresses to mechanically build specific nanometer- scale structures. The education component will broaden the department's curriculum in theory and modeling by the development of graduate and undergraduate computer applications courses, including hands-on experience through computer laboratories. %%% This CAREER grant contains both research and educational thrusts that address the application of computer modeling techniques to problems in materials science and engineering. The research component focuses on a particular area, namely the development of a fundamental understanding of mechanical properties of solids and the use of this understanding to choose appropriate tip shapes and applied stresses to mechanically build specific structures. This will all take place on the length scale of tens or hundreds of atoms. The education component will broaden the department's curriculum in theory and modeling by the development of graduate and undergraduate computer applications courses, including hands- on experience through computer laboratories. ***
