Multiscale Modelling I


Description:
Many problems in chemical engineering are governed by time and length scales that differ by several orders of magnitude. Bridging these scales with integrated, multi-scale models is a challenging problem. Papers are solicited on novel, integrated multi-scale modeling methods with emphasis on discussion of algorithmic details and applications in chemical and biological engineering.
