- aims
- This lecture and tutorial course provides an introduction to the methods of nonlinear dynamics and mathematical physics used to analyse and explain patterns in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Central tools of applied mathematics are discussed in details and mastered on a number of analytically solvable examples, ranging from classical to recently discovered phenomena.
- requirements
- Bachelor of Science in Physics
- structure / topics / contents
- - A quick intro into fluid mechanics, including derivation of governing equations;
- Rayleigh-Bernard-, Marangoni-, Kelvin-Helmholtz hydrodynamic instabilities;
- Turing instability and front propagation in reaction-diffusion systems;
- Absolute and convective instabilities in reaction-advection-diffusion systems;
- Dynamic pattern-forming behavior in discrete systems of interacting particles, e.g. zigzag explosions, discrete front propagation, magnetic sieves;
- Extra: Patterns in colloidal liquid crystal, dynamic mode locking
