CENG 214Nanoscale Physics and Modeling
Expanded mathematical analysis of topics introduced in CENG 212. Introduction of both analytical and numerical methods through application to problems in NanoEngineering. Nanoscale systems of interest include colloidal systems, block-copolymer based self-assembled materials, molecular motors made out of DNA, RNA, or proteins, etc. Nanoscale phenomena including self-assembly at the nanoscale, phase separation within confined spaces, diffusion through nanopores and nanoslits, etc. Modeling techniques include quantum mechanics, diffusion and kinetics theories, molecular dynamics, etc. Cross-listed with NANO 204. Students may not receive credit for both CENG 214 and NANO 204.
