Practical Multiscaling

Multiscale computations have been identified as one of the areas critical to future nanotechnology and biotechnology advances. Combining fundamental theory and practical methods of multiscale modeling, Practical Multiscaling contains a detailed exposition of the state-of-the-art multiscale theories and their insertion into conventional (single-scale) finite element code architecture. Presenting fundamental modeling techniques aimed at bridging diverse temporal and spatial scales, the text focuses on practical multiscale methods that account for fine-scale (material) details, but do not require their precise resolution. This is a trove of valuable material for graduate and postgraduate students.
