计算物理学起源于对核武器的研制和核科学技术的需要而产生并伴随着计算机的出现和发展而逐步形成的一门新兴的边缘学科。它是研究物质相互作用和运动形态的基本规律在复杂系中的数值解的科学,它包括物理理论,计算数学,计算机专用软件等,是一门综合性很强的边缘科学。从借助计算机去探索突破以往理论物理学的极限,扩大其可能性方面来看,计算物理学是“理论的实验”性科学。它的主题是物理理论问题,而其方法或模式等方面又接 Computational physics originated from a new and emerging subject of the discipline that emerges from the need for the development of nuclear weapons and the needs of nuclear science and technology, accompanied by the advent and development of computers. It is a science that studies the basic laws of material interaction and movement form in complex systems. It includes physics theory, computational mathematics, computer special software and so on. It is a highly comprehensive edge science. From the point of using computers to explore the limits of breaking through theoretical physics in the past and expand its possibilities, computational physics is “experimental experimental” science. Its theme is a matter of physics theory, and its methods or models are followed
