Computational Materials Physics
Computational Materials Physics combines physics, computer science, and applied
mathematics to provide scientific solutions to realistic and often complex problems
involving materials.
Our strategy is to develop and apply state-of-the-art theoretical and computational
methods in conjunction with the best available computing resources to attack
challenging problems involving novel nanostructured materials such as carbon
nanotubes, inorganic nanowires, etc.
