What are some common techniques for building multiscale models for materials?
I would limit my answer to the situation where you have only two scales in your system. For more complicated problems, it's easy to generalize the concept provided here. Usually, the computational ...

What are some common techniques for building multiscale models for materials?
One example of multi-scale modeling in materials modeling is coarse-grain modeling
In these examples larger systems can be studied in a more efficient way by treating clusters of atoms, often ...
