Call for Abstracts:

Symposium on the

Multiscale Analysis of Nano- and Bio-Structures: From Theory to Numerical Implementation

at the

51st Anual SES Conference at Purdue University (West Lafayette, Indiana, October 1-3, 2014)

The exceptional properties
of nanostructures have drawn a new horizon for the future of science.
These include low dimensional atomic systems such as graphene sheets and
nanotubes and many biological and structural elements such as
biomimetic materials, bio-membranes, nanowires, thin films, etc.
Multiscale analysis has provided the scientific community with a cost
efficient methodology to explore and investigate these materials with performing
full atomistic calculation in non-homogeneous regions and using
coarse-grained methods far away from these regions. This symposium will
provide a forum for researchers to present research on the advances in
multiscale analyses and frameworks common to these diverse materials.
Topics include, but are not limited to, theory and computation on:

• Multiscale analyses of crystalline structure,

• Multiscale analyses of carbon-based membranes such as graphene and nanotube,

• Multiscale analyses of biomimetic materials and biological molecules.
