Computational Approaches in Physics
“Computational Approaches in Physics” by Maria Fyta, published by IOP Publishing Limited in November 2016, offers a comprehensive review of computational schemes utilized in the simulation of physical systems. This edition, comprising 138 pages, provides an overview of various techniques, ranging from highly accurate ab initio methods to coarse-grained and mesoscopic approaches. The book employs a bottom-up methodology to explain the underlying theory of each simulation method, addressing their complexities and the computational challenges involved.
Readers will find detailed discussions on the implementation of these techniques, along with representative examples that illustrate their application. Each chapter includes links to commonly used computational codes, both commercial and open source, enhancing the practical utility of the content. The book covers topics such as computer simulation and the intersection of science and physics, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the computational aspects of physical research.
Official synopsis Publisher
Computational Approaches in Physics reviews computational schemes that are used in the simulations of physical systems. These range from very accurate ab initio techniques up to coarse-grained and mesoscopic schemes. A bottom-up approach is used to present the various simulation methods, and outlines the basic theory underlying each technique and its complexity, addresses the computational implications and issues in the implementation, as well as present representative examples. A link to the most common computational codes, commercial or open source is listed in each chapter.
