Projektbeschreibung der*des Nominierenden
| Professor Michael W Finnis is an international leading expert in atomistic modelling and simulation. His many seminal contributions on interatomic interactions and interface properties and thermodynamics have helped to shape the field of materials science as we know it today. During his stay in Germany Professor Finnis will continue his research on first principles modelling of thermodynamic and kinetic properties of materials, with a focus on the coarse graining from a quantum mechanical description to classical atomistic models to continuum simulations. |
