Editorial Reviews

From the reviews:

"This is an advanced mathematical treatise devoted to an overview of numerical computational methods and techniques for materials modeling on different length and time scales. Steinhauser … covers microscale, mesoscale, and macroscale of materials modeling in two parts and seven chapters. … The book includes several appendixes, with one that provides further reading and another that lists almost 500 references. … Summing Up: Recommended. Graduate students and researchers/faculty in mathematics and physics." (R. Darby, CHOICE, Vol. 45 (10), June, 2008)
