Schedule

The computational nature of this project means that it is important to have regular access to computational facilities. Although simulations (and reading/writing) can be done anywhere, the following room has been reserved for use during the project introduction and support sessions (and is likely available most of the time):

Y342a, Main building

The lecturer and/or assistants (Support team) will be present on the following specific sessions (we strongly recommend you attend them):

Opening session - introduction and planning

This session focuses on how to build a plan for your project. This must be written down (1 page maximum) and, if not completed in the introduction session, submitted via My Courses within 1 week (or to the private page).

  • 5.5 Tuesday 15:15 - 18:00 Group 1
  • 6.5 Wednesday 12:15 - 15:00 Group 2
  • 8.5 Friday 8:15 - 11:00 Group 3
  • 8.5 Friday 12:15 - 15:00 Group 4

Support sessions

These session focuses on supporting initial simulations and discussing any technical problems, particularly using the available tools and building a coherent approach to studying atomic friction. You can attend any session, but it is important to contact the support team (Support team) in advance to book a slot for your group as we can only accommodate 4-5 groups per session (first come first served).

  • 12.5 Tuesday 15:15 - 18:00

Presentation sessions

The final grade is based on a group presentation given in either a morning or afternoon slot on the following days:

  • 28.5 Wednesday 9:00 - 16:00
  • 29.5 Thursday 9:00 - 16:00

Slots will be arranged after the groups are selected in the introduction session, and you will only need to attend a single 3 hour session on one of the two days.
