It focuses on practical multiscale methods that account for fine-scale (material) details but do not require their precise resolution. The text material evolved from over 20 years of teaching experience at Rensselaer and Columbia University, as well as from practical experience gained in the application of multiscale software.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book comprehensively covers theory and implementation, providing a detailed exposition of the state-of-the-art multiscale theories and their insertion into conventional (single-scale) finite element code architecture. The robustness and design aspects of multiscale methods are also emphasised, which is accomplished via four building blocks: upscaling of information, systematic reduction of information, characterization of information utilizing experimental data, and material optimization. To ensure the reader gains hands-on experience, a companion website hosting a lite version of the multiscale design software (MDS-Lite) is available.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eKey features:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCombines fundamental theory and practical methods of multiscale modelling\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers the state-of-the-art multiscale theories and examines their practical usability in design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCovers applications of multiscale methods\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAccompanied by a continuously updated website hosting the multiscale design software\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIllustrated with colour images\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePractical Multiscaling\u003c\/i\u003e is an ideal textbook for graduate students studying multiscale science and engineering.
