Micro–macro models associate the coarse-grained molecular scale of the kinetic theory to the macroscopic scale of continuum mechanics. The conservation equations are solved along with the microscopic equation or the so-called Fokker–Planck equation. In this paper, a micro–macro approach...

A stochastic numerical scheme for an extended immersed boundary method which incorporates thermal fluctuations for the simulation of microscopic biological systems consisting of fluid and immersed elastica was introduced in reference [2]. The numerical scheme uses techniques from stochastic...

Predicting measurable thermodynamic and kinetic properties of solids from first-principles requires the use of statistical mechanics. A major challenge for materials of technological importance arises from the fact that first-principles electronic structure calculations of elementary excited...
