Multiscale mathematics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Multiscale mathematics is a branch of applied and computational mathematics concerned with the accurate and efficient solution of mathematical expressions representing the physical laws of nature across several levels of physical organization and/or spatial/temporal scales.

The primary areas of mathematical and algorithmic development include:

• Continuum modeling

• Discrete modeling

• Analytical modeling

• Statistical modeling

• Network-based modeling
