Course description and aims
In this course, students learn about the principles of calculation and computer simulation related to modeling, which are important for designing functional materials in industry and chemical industry related to materials and information, or in the construction of material manufacturing processes. The aim is to understand how to design functional materials and how to optimize the manufacturing process. In addition, the group working aims to develop the communication skills necessary for research and development by working in groups in order to solve these issues.
Student learning outcomes
In the design of functional materials that make full use of knowledge and technology related to materials and information, it is essential to utilize processing technology of information related to the structure and physical properties of chemical substances. The purpose of this course is to conduct exercises using modeling, simulation, and information processing, to optimize the operating conditions in chemical processes, and to learn how to design functional materials.
