Nanoscience Materials and Engineering

Computational research in nanoscience and materials engineering spans orders of magnitude in time and length scales, ranging from fundamental studies of materials at the atomic level to designing materials with tailored properties on the micron length scale to simulating properties of granular materials on the millimeter length scale, to materials and lifecycle issues associated with macroscale systems.
