Abstract
As the culmination of this handbook, this chapter represents more than 12 orders of magnitude in length scales (in meters) and more than 25 orders of magnitude in timescales (in seconds) representing materials structures, properties, processing and performance issues, and phenomena as these are related to computer simulations and especially example applications. These illustrate atomistic simulations and simulations applied to large engineering structures such as the Francis hydraulic turbine runner blade castings for the Three Gorges Dam (China), weighing over 400 t. These examples also illustrate the concepts of verification and validation essential in successfully applying computational materials science and engineering to the widest spectrum of materials and materials systems.
