Contents Scientific Modeling and Simulations; A retrospective on the journal of computer-aided materials design (JCAD), 1993 -- 2007; Extrapolative procedures in modelling and simulations: the role of instabilities; Characteristic quantities and dimensional analysis; Accuracy of models; Multiscale simulations of complex systems: computation meets reality; Chemomechanics of complex materials: challenges and opportunities in predictive kinetic timescales; Tight-binding Hamiltonian from first-principles calculations
Summary Showcases the conceptual advantages of modeling which, coupled with the unprecedented computing power through simulations, allow scientists to tackle the formibable problems of our society, such as the search for hydrocarbons, understanding the structure of a virus, or the intersection between simulations and real data in extreme environments
