Multiscale Materials Modelling: Fundamentals and Applications
Multiscale materials modelling offers an integrated approach to modelling material behaviour across a range of scales from the electronic, atomic and microstructural up to the component level. As a result, it provides valuable new insights into complex structures and their properties, opening the way to develop new, multi-functional materials together with improved process and product designs. Multiscale materials modelling summarises some of the key techniques and their applications.

The various chapters cover the spectrum of scales in modelling methodologies, including electronic structure calculations, mesoscale and continuum modelling. The book covers such themes as dislocation behaviour and plasticity as well as the modelling of structural materials such as metals, polymers and ceramics. With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, Multiscale materials modelling is a valuable reference for both the modelling community and those in industry wanting to know more about how multiscale materials modelling can help optimise product and process design.
  • Reviews the principles and applications of mult-scale materials modelling
  • Covers themes such as dislocation behaviour and plasticity and the modelling of structural materials
  • Examines the spectrum of scales in modelling methodologies, including electronic structure calculations, mesoscale and continuum modelling
