| Summary: |
Combining theory and applications, this book deals with the modelling of materials properties and phenomena at atomic level.; The first part provides an overview of the state of the art of computational solid state physics. Emphasis is given to the understanding of approximations and their consequences regarding the accuracy of the results. This part of the book also serves as a guide to find the best method for a given purpose. |
