Minisymposium Title: Numerical Methods in Multiscale Materials Modelling

Minisymposium Description: Multiscale methods are of central importance in the efficient simulation of materials, but it is now evident that the development of robust, scalable methods requires coordinated progress in modelling and numerical analysis. The aim of this minisymposium is to bring together researchers working with knowledge of computational statistical mechanics, molecular dynamics, and stochastic numerics to explore state-of-the-art development in the methodology of multiscale materials modelling, in order to foster closer contact and facilitate the exchange of ideas and expertise across the different areas.
