Uncertainty Quantification in Multiscale Materials Modeling provides a complete overview of uncertainty quantification (UQ) in computational materials science. It provides practical tools and methods along with examples of their application to problems in materials modeling. UQ methods are applied to various multiscale models ranging from the nanoscale to macroscale. This book presents a thorough synthesis of the state-of-the-art in UQ methods for materials modeling, including Bayesian inference, surrogate modeling, random fields, interval analysis, and sensitivity analysis, providing insight into the unique characteristics of models framed at each scale, as well as common issues in modeling across scales.

Dr. Wang joined Georgia Tech in 2009 and leads the Multiscale Systems Engineering research group. His research areas include computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing, modeling and simulation, as well as uncertainty quantification. The overarching goal of his research group is to tackle the curse-of-dimensionality design challenge by developing new physics-based data-driven methods to enable engineers to establish comprehensive and robust process-structure-property relationships for the design of materials, products, and processes. He has published over 90 archived journal papers and 80 peer-reviewed conference papers. His research work was recognized with multiple best paper awards at American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE), Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS), and Computer-Aided Design (CAD) conferences, as well as the U.S. National Science Foundation CAREER Award. He has been regularly invited to give lectures at universities in U.S., Europe, and Asia, and review proposals for government agencies of several countries. He served as editors for ASME Journal of Computing & Information Science in Engineering, Journal of Mechanical Design, Journal of Computational & Nonlinear Dynamics, and Journal of Risk & Uncertainty in Engineering Systems. He is currently the Chair of the ASME Computers & Information in Engineering Division, and was the Chair of ASME Advanced Modeling & Simulation Technical Committee.
Dr. McDowell joined Georgia Tech in 1983 and holds a dual appointment in the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering and the School of Materials Science and Engineering.
