Sommario/riassunto

Multi-Scale Phenomena in Complex Fluids is a collection of lecture notes delivered during the first two series of mini-courses from "Shanghai Summer School on Analysis and Numerics in Modern



Sciences", which was held in 2004 and 2006 at Fudan University, Shanghai, China. This review volume of 5 chapters, covering various fields in complex fluids, places emphasis on multi-scale modeling, analyses and simulations. It will be of special interest to researchers and graduate students who want to work in the field of complex fluids.
