Abstract
This thesis presented the development of a method that can describe the dynamics of quantum problems with interacting electrons and phonons. The method, called Effective Correlated Electron-Ion Dynamics (ECEID), aims to describe in real-time the mutual evolution of electrons and phonons in mesoscale systems and capture the energy exchanges between them.
