- Digicampus Registration: It is sufficient to be registered for the lecture. A separate registration for the project part is not required.

- Literature: See the recommendations further above.

Contents: This lecture can be divided into two parts. One part covers an introduction to the finite element method, which will be restricted to one dimemsional scalar problems. The contents of the lecture are applied in small exercises including both calculations by hand and computer exercises.

The other part covers the basics of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. In this case, introductory simulations will be the focus of the exercise.
