This volume explores multiscale methods as applied to various areas of physics and to the relative developments in mathematics. In the last few years, multiscal

A systematic discussion of the fundamental principles, written by a leading contributor to the field.

Small scale features and processes occurring at nanometer and femtosecond scales have a profound impact on what happens at a larger scale and over an extensive

Material properties emerge from phenomena on scales ranging from Angstroms to millimeters, and only a multiscale treatment can provide a complete understanding.
