Yes I have. Thanks. Since I am still an undergrad, I don't have experience on reading journal but I will give it a try.berkeman said:Others can give you better advice on the best sources, but when I did a Google search on computational materials science the top hit was to a journal:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/computational-materials-science
Do you have access to that journal through your university or internship?
Why don't you contact the professor (or professors) who will be teaching it or who have taught it for references? If no professor is listed, ask the department secretary <ETA: for names of professors>.planck999 said:
The primary sources for studying computational materials science include scientific journals, textbooks, conference proceedings, online databases, and research papers.
Scientific journals and research papers related to computational materials science can be accessed through online databases such as ScienceDirect, Wiley Online Library, and SpringerLink. Many universities also have subscriptions to these databases, allowing students and researchers to access them for free.
Some recommended textbooks for studying computational materials science include "Introduction to Computational Materials Science" by Richard LeSar, "Computational Materials Science: An Introduction" by June Gunn Lee, and "Materials Modelling Using Density Functional Theory: Properties and Predictions" by Feliciano Giustino.
Yes, there are many online resources available for learning about computational materials science. Some examples include the Materials Project, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Materials Science and Engineering Data Gateway, and the Materials Science and Engineering Division of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) website.
To stay updated on the latest developments in computational materials science, you can follow relevant journals and research groups on social media, attend conferences and workshops, and join professional organizations such as the Materials Research Society (MRS) or the American Physical Society (APS) Division of Computational Physics.
