Multiscale mathematics is a branch of applied and computational mathematics concerned with the accurate and efficient solution of mathematical expressions representing the physical laws of nature across several levels of physical organization and/or spatial/temporal scales.
The primary areas of mathematical and algorithmic development include:
- Continuum modeling
- Discrete modeling
- Analytical modeling
- Statistical modeling
- Network-based modeling
