PHYS-435: Statistical physics IIIThis course introduces statistical field theory, and uses concepts related to phase transitions to discuss a variety of complex systems (random walks and polymers, disordered systems, combinatorial o
PHYS-491: Magnetism in materialsThe lectures will provide an introduction to magnetism in materials, covering fundamentals of spin and orbital degrees of freedom, interactions between moments and some typical ordering patterns. Sele
ChE-330: Fluid mechanics and transport phenomenaThe concept of Shell balances, the Navier-Stokes equations and generalized differential balances equations for heat and mass transport are derived. These relations are applied to model systems. Integr
PHYS-639: Field Theory in Condensed Matter PhysicsTopics covered: Superfluidity in weakly interacting Bose gas, the random phase approximation to the Coulomb interaction in the Jellium model, superconductivity within the random phase approximation, t
MATH-329: Continuous optimizationThis course introduces students to continuous, nonlinear optimization. We study the theory of optimization with continuous variables (with full proofs), and we analyze and implement important algorith
HUM-390: Perspectives critiques de la durabilitéCe cours propose de partir des paradigmes de la durabilité et d'en décliner les conséquences sociales et politiques contemporaines. Nous allons adopter une approche critique des diverses théorisations
CIVIL-515: Flood and dam break wavesLe cours offre des méthodes de calcul hydraulique pour des problèmes d'écoulements non permanents tels que les crues, les vagues, et les ruptures de barrage. L'accent est mis sur la compréhension phys
