Symposium FlyerAbstract: This symposium will focus on theoretical and computational methods used in determining the structure and properties of complex materials. A wide-variety of methods ranging from time-dependent density functional theory to tight­binding molecular dynamics, genetic algorithm, Gutzwiller density functional theory, multi-scale modeling, and real­space Green's function techniques will be discussed to study the properties of complex materials ranging from amorphous solids, nanowires, layered structures, and nanoclusters for their potential applications in renewable energy , microelectronics, hydrogen storage, catalysis, and metal-ion batteries.
