NJIT HONOR CODE

All Students should be aware that the Department of Mathematical Sciences takes the NJIT Honor code very seriously and enforces it strictly.  This means there must not be any forms of plagiarism, i.e., copying of homework, class projects, or lab assignments, or any form of cheating in quizzes and exams.  Under the Honor Code, students are obligated to report any such activities to the Instructor.

Course Outline:

 

Theoretical, computational, and experimental research:

╚       Forces and Pressures in Granular Media

Theoretical component:

»      Learning the basics about physics of granular systems, including the manner in which forces and pressure propagate through these systems;

»      Applying novel topological measures to the structures that form when particulate systems are exposed to external forcing.

Computational component:

»      Image processing;

»      Development of molecular dynamics simulations of particulate systems based on Newton's laws, including friction and rotational degrees of freedom;

»      Applying computational homology approach to image analysis of particulate systems.

Experimental component:

»      Performing experiments involving two dimensional particulate systems;

»      Visualization of photoelastic granular systems using CCD camera and appropriate software;

»      Data analysis.
