Model reduction and coarse-graining are important in many areas of science and engineering. How does a system with many degrees of freedom become one with fewer? How can a reversible micro-description be adapted to the dissipative macroscopic model? These crucial questions, as well as many other related problems, are discussed in this book. All contributions are by experts whose specialities span a wide range of fields within science and engineering.
Dealing with systems with many degrees of freedom and how they can be mathematically described in a way to manage the variety, this book explains how macroscopic properties arise from microscopic and nano-properties.
