Students in materials science and engineering are not allowed to take this course for credit, but graduate students from all other technical disciplines are welcome. This will be supplemented with course notes and web resources. Students must read ahead so the course can be as much based on discussion and clearification as on 'lecture'. In addition, each Tuesday we will discuss homework problems in the last part of the class. Each Thrusday we will have a lab-experience in the last part of class.
