MDI 440LEC - Design and Function of Soft Materials

This course provides an introduction to the unique structural characteristics that make a soft materials behave differently from conventional hard materials like metals and ceramics. The course will introduces different types of soft materials and discusses the behavior of soft matter across different length- and time- scales of measurement and application. The behavior and functional properties of soft condensed matter will be described through their structural properties. Experimental, modeling, and data methods will employed to understand the behavior of materials and to design new structures of soft matter.
