Far-from-equilibrium Processes in Physical Systems: Theory and Modeling
Contributors
- James W Evans
We utilize the concepts and methods of non-equilibrium statistical physics and multiscale modeling to develop predictive models and simulation algorithms for a range of physical, chemical, and materials systems.
