He is involved in the development of algorithms for First-Principles Molecular Dynamics, a simulation method that combines a calculation of atomic trajectories with a quantum mechanical description of electronic properties. This method is widely used to explore the properties of solids, liquids, nanoparticles and biomolecules. First-principles simulations are computationally expensive and require the use of large parallel computers. The integration of efficient parallel numerical algorithms in simulation codes is an important part of his research.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Professor Fran\u00e7ois Gygi Department of Computer Science 3013 Ghausi Hall (Engineering III) University of California Davis, CA 95616 Research Group Web Page Email: fgygi at ucdavis.edu Phone: (530) 752 4042 Research Professor Gygi’s research interests include the development of accurate numerical simulation methods for applications in computational materials science, as \u2026 Continue reading
