Computational Multiscale Modeling of Fluids and Solids: Theory and Applications in Computational Science (Graduate Texts in Physics)

This book covers the principles and applications of computational multiscale modeling of fluids and solids.It explores the physics across various length and timescales, introducing fundamental concepts in fluid and solid mechanics, and the objectives of experimental and theoretical physics.With detailed discussions on numerical methods, statistical physics, thermodynamics, and the theory of elasticity, this book integrates theoretical background with practical computational examples.Designed for advanced students and professionals, the book includes computational exercises and projects, supported by source code available within the text and for download. This edition contains several significant updates and expansions.It now features standalone chapters on molecular dynamics simulations and on the Monte Carlo method, both enriched with new applications and examples.The treatment of hypervelocity impact and shock-related applications has also been expanded and is integrated into the bro
