Incorporate Random Forces into Mechanical Systems

Newtonian Mechanics → Fluctuation-Dissipation Theorem

This learning path guides students through the theoretical foundations and mathematical tools needed to model mechanical systems subject to random forces, culminating in the Langevin equation, Brownian motion, Fokker-Planck formalism, and the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Starting from classical mechanics and probability theory, the path builds up the stochastic calculus and statistical physics concepts essential for understanding and applying these ideas.
