KurzbeschreibungSimulationsmethoden in der statistischen Physik. Klassische Monte-Carlo-Simulationen: finite-size scaling, Clusteralgorithmen, Histogramm-Methoden, Renormierungsgruppe. Anwendung auf Boltzmann-Maschinen. Simulation von Nichtgleichgewichtssystemen.

Molekulardynamik-Simulationen: langreichweitige Wechselwirkungen, Ewald-Summation, diskrete Elemente, Parallelisierung.
LernzielDie Vorlesung ist eine Vertiefung von Simulationsmethoden in der statistischen Physik, und daher ideal als Fortführung der Veranstaltung "Introduction to Computational Physics" des Herbstsemesters. Im ersten Teil lernen Studenten die folgenden Methoden anzuwenden: Klassische Monte-Carlo-Simulationen, finite-size scaling, Clusteralgorithmen, Histogramm-Methoden, Renormierungsgruppe. Ausserdem lernen Studenten die Anwendung der Methoden aus der Statistischen Physik auf Boltzmann-Maschinen kennen und lernen wie Nichtgleichgewichtssysteme simuliert werden.

Im zweiten Teil wenden die Studenten Methoden zur Simulation von Molekulardynamiken an. Das beinhaltet unter anderem auch langreichweitige Wechselwirkungen, Ewald-Summation und diskrete Elemente.

This course is only for doctoral students.
W2 KP2SC. Schaffner
KurzbeschreibungDoctoral students at ETH Zurich working in the broad area of energy present their research to their colleagues, their advisors and the scientific community. Each week a different student gives a 50-60 min presentation of their research (a full introduction, background & findings) followed by discussion with the audience.
LernzielThe key objectives of the course are:
(1) participants will gain knowledge of advanced research in the area of energy;
(2) participants will actively participate in discussion after each presentation;
(3) participants gain experience of different presentation styles;
(4) to create a network amongst the energy research doctoral student community.
InhaltDoctoral students at ETH Zurich working in the broad area of energy present their research to their colleagues, to their advisors and to the scientific community. There will be one presentation a week during the semester, each structured as follows: 20 min introduction to the research topic, 30 min presentation of the results, 30 min discussion with the audience.
SkriptSlides will be available on the Energy Science Center pages(Link).
101-0178-01LUncertainty Quantification in Engineering Information W3 KP2GS. Marelli
KurzbeschreibungUncertainty quantification aims at studying the impact of aleatory and epistemic uncertainty onto computational models used in science and engineering. The course introduces the basic concepts of uncertainty quantification: probabilistic modelling of data (copula theory), uncertainty propagation techniques (Monte Carlo simulation, polynomial chaos expansions), and sensitivity analysis.
LernzielAfter this course students will be able to properly pose an uncertainty quantification problem, select the appropriate computational methods and interpret the results in meaningful statements for field scientists, engineers and decision makers. The course is suitable for any master/Ph.D. student in engineering or natural sciences, physics, mathematics, computer science with a basic knowledge in probability theory.
InhaltThe course introduces uncertainty quantification through a set of practical case studies that come from civil, mechanical, nuclear and electrical engineering, from which a general framework is introduced. The course in then divided into three blocks: probabilistic modelling (introduction to copula theory), uncertainty propagation (Monte Carlo simulation and polynomial chaos expansions) and sensitivity analysis (correlation measures, Sobol' indices). Each block contains lectures and tutorials using Matlab and the in-house software UQLab (Link).
SkriptDetailed slides are provided for each lecture. A printed script gathering all the lecture slides may be bought at the beginning of the semester.
Voraussetzungen / BesonderesA basic background in probability theory and statistics (bachelor level) is required. A summary of useful notions will be handed out at the beginning of the course.

A good knowledge of Matlab is required to participate in the tutorials and for the mini-project.

W3 KP2UB. Wehrli, F. Brugger, S. Pfister
KurzbeschreibungStudents integrate their knowledge of mineral resources and technical skills to frame and investigate a commodity-specific challenge faced by countries involved in resource extraction. By own research they evaluate possible policy-relevant solutions, engaging in interdisciplinary teams coached by tutors and experts from natural social and engineering sciences.
LernzielStudents will be able to:
- Integrate, and extend by own research, their knowledge of mineral resources from course 860-0015-00, in a solution-oriented team with mixed expertise
- Apply their problem solving, and analytical skills to critically assess, and define a complex, real-world mineral resource problem, and propose possible solutions.
- Summarize and synthesize published literature and expert knowledge, evaluate decision-making tools, and policies applied to mineral resources.
- Document and communicate the findings in concise group presentations and a report.
