  1. Scaffolding Simulations in a Rate Processes of Materials Course

    Teaching Materials | 16 Aug 2018 | Contributor(s):: Susan P Gentry

    This learning resource describes a set of programming assignments that are used in a Rate Processes of Materials course. The assignments are designed around the pedagogical principle of scaffolding, in which students are given initial support structures that are gradually removed. The...

  2. Poisson Equation Solvers

    Teaching Materials | 08 Jun 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

    There are two general schemes for solving linear systems: Direct Elimination Methods, and Iterative Methods.All the direct methods are, in some sense, based on the standard Gauss Elimination technique, which systematically applies row operations to transform the original system of equations into...

  3. Poisson Equation Solvers - General Considerations

    Teaching Materials | 08 Jun 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

    We describe the need for numerical modeling, the finite difference method, the conversion from continuous set to set of matrix equations, types of solvers for solving sparse matrix equations of the form Ax=b that result, for example, from the finite difference discretization of the Poisson...

  4. Multigrid Tutorial

    Teaching Materials | 08 Jun 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

    This set of slides describe the idea behind the multigrid method and its implementation.

  5. Drift-Diffusion Modeling and Numerical Implementation Details

    Teaching Materials | 01 Jun 2010 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska

    This tutorial describes the constitutive equations for the drift-diffusion model and implementation details such as discretization and numerical solution of the algebraic equations that result from the finite difference discretization of the Poisson and the continuity...

  6. Computational Electronics HW - Finite Difference Discretization of Poisson Equation

    Teaching Materials | 11 Jul 2008 | Contributor(s):: Dragica Vasileska, Gerhard Klimeck
