Bringing together all these modeling approaches and applications into one coherent volume, Computational Methods for the Multiscale Modeling of Soft Matter provides a one-stop resource that is written primarily for postgraduate students and researchers in materials science, computational physics, and chemists and chemical engineers interested in learning about simulation methods for soft materials such as polymers, surfactants, and colloids.
This is the first volume to publish in Elsevier's Methods in Molecular and Materials Modelling book series, curated by Sir Richard Catlow.
- Introduces the theoretical underpinnings of a broad range of soft matter modeling techniques
- Demonstrates the critical assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of each of the techniques, including comparisons with experimental data when possible
- Provides example applications to guide the reader through how techniques can be used in practice

About the Author
Nigel Clarke is a Professor of Condensed Matter Theory at the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, University of Sheffield, UK. He has an active research program in both theory and simulations of polymer structure and dynamics. His research on developing models for structure evolution in polymers uses phase field models. Recently, his work on phase field models for phase separation helped elucidate the role of phase separation in creating structural colour in beetle scales. He developed the first theoretical framework for simultaneous de-wetting and phase separation. He pioneered the use of phase field models to predict structure/property relations in amorphous polymeric organic photovoltaics. He also has experience with molecular dynamics and dissipative particle dynamics, which he used to model structure and dynamics in polymer nanocomposites in a joint project with colleagues at the University of Pennsylvania, USA. He received his PhD from the University of Sheffield, UK in 1994, and following postdoctoral research positions at The University of Southampton and The University of Leeds, also in the UK he moved to the Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST) Materials Science for his first academic position. He then spent 13 years in the Department of Chemistry at Durham University, UK before returning to Sheffield University in 2011.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPricesUK, Castle Donington, Derby, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
