Section Title:
Computational MSE- Macroscale
Section Info:
Hands-on experience with popular macroscopic computational materials science and engineering software through project-based learning in finite element modeling (OOF2) and phase equilibria calculations (Thermo-Calc). Students will also develop proficiency in data analysis and visualization in MATLAB. The course will prioritize the physical principles underlying the software to confer an understanding of their applicability and limitations, and hands-on immersive praxis to give students the confidence and expertise to independently use these tools.
