About the course

In the course "Computer modeling of physical phenomena" deals with the definition of different types of models, their classification is given; shows how to make and analyze models on examples of phenomena as common in nature and observed in a physical experiment; describes the systems having a chaotic or analytically unpredictable: the flow of particles in crystals, random walks, percolation, kinetic model of growth, cellular automata, Ising model.

Special attention is paid to practical examples that complement the theoretical presentation, and which are ready-made programs or program blocks, from which the student can make a program on their own.

(a)        critically assess the applicability of the model and the obtained modeling data;

(b)        use the knowledge of methods for modeling physical phenomena in Mathematica package in the field of condensed matter physics;

(c)        use the knowledge of analytical and simulation research methods using Mathematica package;

(d)        comprehensively analyze and theoretically generalize the results of modeling;

(e)        plan a model experiment;

(f)        obtain experience of treating simulation results and processing the results with Mathematica package
