1. The Role of Multiscale Science – Engineering Integration to
shape the Future of Virtual Engineering and Manufacturing Computational Multiscale has become a key asset in the R&D World and it begins to be applied in the
Engineering and Manufacturing Fields. Multiscale methods helped to establish a bridge between Science
and Engineering and the related domains of knowledge. These trends and the continuous advances in High
Performance Computing, Information and Communication Technologies provided the basis to define a new
vision of Multiscale we refer to as "Strategic Multiscale”. The term “Strategic” means that Multiscale
Concepts and Methodologies are applied not only to improve Computational Methodologies, but, also, to
improve in a significant way R&D, Engineering and Manufacturing Organization and Strategies.
New Reference Concept: Multiscale Modeling and Simulation as “Knowledge Multipliers and Integrators” and Unifying Paradigm for Scientific and Engineering Methodologies and Knowledge Domanis
Strategic Multiscale Origins and Foundations In mid of nineties several researchers in the Chemical Engineering field (Sapre and Katzer, Lerou and Ng,
and Villermaux) and the author of this document (Alessandro Formica) highlighted the need of a
comprehensive multiscale approach as a key strategy to establish a new “Unifying Paradigm” to enable a
better correlation between scientific and engineering advances and knowledge domains. Later on, Prof.
Charpentier, past European Federation of Chemical Engineering President, illustrated similar concepts.
In 2013 the awarding of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to three scientists for the development of Multiscale Models for Complex Chemical Systems has confirmed this “Vision” and helped to create the optimal intellectual and scientific context to introduce high level Projects and Initiatives in the “Multiscale Science – Engineering Integration“ field
Multiscale as “Unifying Paradigm for Chemical Engineering
Prof. Charpentier, past European Federation of Chemical Engineering (EFCE) President, at the 6th
World Congress of Chemical Engineering - Melbourne 2001, described his Vision of Multiscale as
“Strategic Paradigm” for Chemical Engineering. We report his words :
“One key to survival in globalization of trade and competition, including needs and challenges, is the
ability of chemical engineering to cope with the society and economic problems encountered in the
chemical and related process industries. It appears that the necessary progress will be achieved via a
multidisciplinary and time and length multiscale integrated approach to satisfy both the market
requirements for specific end use properties and the environmental and society constraints of the
industrial processes and the associated services.
This concerns four main objectives for engineers and researchers:
(a) total multiscale control of the process (or procedure) to increase selectivity and productivity,
(b) design of novel equipment based on scientific principles and new methods of production: process
intensification,
(c) manufacturing end-use properties for product design: the triplet ‘processus-product-process’
engineering,
(d) implementation of multiscale application of computational modeling and simulation to real-life
situations: from the molecular scale to the overall complex production scale.”
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2013 to Martin Karplus of Université de Strasbourg, France and Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA; Michael Levitt of Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA, USA; and Arieh Warshel of the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA "for the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems chemical systems."

The definition of new Frameworks like the “Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME)” and the “Integrated Compuitational Materials Science Engineering (ICMSE)” ones and the launch of the US Presidential Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) put the bases for a wide Industrial Application of Multiscale Science – Engineering Integration Strategies and Frameworks
The writer, synthesizing multiannual experience with some of the most important industrial and research Italian, European and International and taking advantage of his participation in the EUMAT, has developed a new Integrated Strategic Multiscale Framework which is characterized by interesting innovations compared to current programs and projects incorporating, at the same time, their most significant elements and achievements. This strategy allows to define a specific evolutionary line. The “Integrated Strategic Multiscale” Framework is constituted by:
� A common theoretical, conceptual and methodological core we refer to as “Integrated Multiscale Science – Engineering” Framework [described in the Integrated Strategic Multiscale document]
� Four “Application Frameworks”
– “Integrated Multiscale Science – Engineering Technology, Product and Process Development (IMSE-TPPD) Application Framework” [described in theIntegrated Strategic Multiscale document]
– Integrated Multiscale Science – Engineering Technology and Systems Development (IMSE-TSD)Application Framework [described in the Integrated Strategic Multiscale document]
– Multiscale Science – Engineering From Space To Earth Application Framework [described in the Multiscale Science - Engineering From Space To Earth document]
– Multiscale Science Based Education, Information and Communication Application Framework [described in the Multiscale Science Based Education, Information and Communication document]
A key distinguishing feature of the “Integrated Strategic Multiscale” Framework is that all the four “Application Frameworks” characterize themselves for having a common theoretical, conceptual and methodological basis described in the “Integrated Multiscale Science – Engineering Framework”

What is lacking in these Frameworks?
� A New Vision and Concept for Multiscale Modeling and Simulation and related
Application Schemes
� A New Context to Manage Complexity of the R&D and Engineering/Manufacturing
Processes
� New Education Languages and Frameworks
The theoretical and methodological basis of the “ Integrated Strategic Multiscale Framework” addresses these Issues and it is constituted by the following key elements:
� A new “Vision” of Multiscale Modeling & Simulation as “Knowledge Integrators and Multipliers” and “Unifying Paradigm” for Scientific and Engineering Methodologies and Knowledge Domains. In this perspective “Modeling & Simulation” integrate the full spectrum of science and engineering methodological approaches and knowledge environments.
� Extension of the “Model” concept to the Experimental, Testing and Sensing Worlds
� The “Multiscale Science-Engineering Information Space” concept to integrate data, information
and knowledge from a wide spectrum of computational models and methods and experimental, testing and sensing models and techniques
� The “Information – Driven Analysis” concept and scheme which, together with the Science – Engineering Information Space” concept is a key element to shape Multiscale Methodologically Integrated R&D and Engineering Analysis Strategies
� New Multiscale Science – Engineering Data, Information and Knowledge Management
Systems based upon the Multiscale Maps concept � New methods to “Design” the R&D and Engineering Process � A New Multiscale Science Based Education Language

Multiscale Science – Engineering Information Space
Key Element to Design Integrated Strategic Multiscale Strategies
The “Science-Engineering Information Space” is associated to any computational model/method, and experimental and testing technique. It defines, following a multiscale analysis :
� what spectrum of physical phenomena and processes, at what space and time scales and � at what level of accuracy
can be described by a computational model/method or experimental/testing technique
The set of information we get from a model solved with a specific method/technique represents the “Information Space” associated with the model/method/technique for a specific Task as referred to a specific “System”
The need to define the “Information Space” associated to computational models and experimental techniques, in the context of the Verification & Validation process, has been analyzed by Tim Trucano in “Uncertainty in Verification and Validation: Recent Perspective Optimization and Uncertainty Estimation, Sandia National Laboratories Albuquerque

“Multiscale Multiphysics Modeling and Simulation” can be regarded as “Knowledge Integrators and Multipliers” (KIM) and “Unifying Paradigm” for Scientific and Engineering Domains and Methodologies because Multiscale Models are able to integrate and synthesize, in a coherent framework, Data, information, and Knowledge from:
− a number of different disciplines,
− a wide range of scientific and engineering time and space domains,
− multiple scientific and engineering models (science-engineering integration) linked by a spectrum of coupling schemes.
− a wide spectrum of Computational, Experimentation, Testing and Sensing Multiscale Science – Engineering Information Spaces
− Knowledge described by several Maps generated by a wide range of methodologies (analytical theories, computation, experimentation, testing and sensing)
In this vision, we propose to extend the concept of “Model” to include not only its mathematical formulation, but, also, Information Spaces and Maps linked to it for specific tasks.
The Concept of Experimental, Testing and Sensing “Model” For “Model”, we mean an “Information and Knowledge Structure” that define:
− Characteristics (structure, composition, initial dynamics state, boundary conditions, external loadings) of the
− System to be probed − Characteristics of the equipment in terms of resolution, scale, physical and
biochemical phenomena which can be Probed
− Characteristics of the specific Experimental, Testing and Sensing operational conditions applied for specific R&D and Engineering Tasks
− The “Multiscale Science – Engineering Information Space” related to it − Multiscale Physics Maps .

Computational Microscope: A New Integrated Paradigm
The concept of “Computational Microscope”, illustrated in the following figure, is considered as a basis to achieve a “self-consistent understanding” by integrating the two worlds: modeling & simulation and experimentation & testing. This view reflects, to some extent, our vision of Multiscale Modeling & Simulation as “Knowledge Integrators and Multipliers” (KIM). Note : (MSMP stands for Multi Scale Multi Physics)

KEY FRAMEWORK DISTINGUISHING FEATURES
� The new Integrated Strategic Multiscale Framework allows us to give a New Dimension and Meaning to the term “Virtual” as far as Engineering and Manufacturing are concerned. and introduce a New Field: Virtual Technology Innovation, which is the connection element between Science and Engineering/Manufacturing Domains.
� The “Integrated Strategic Multiscale Framework” defines a “Comprehensive Theoretical and Methodological Environment” to design and implement a New Generation of Virtual Science – Based Technology Innovation, Engineering and Manufacturing Environments and Strategies
Where
Multiscale Modeling and Simulation become “Pivotal” and “Integration Elements” for R&D and Engineering / Manufacturing Strategies overcoming classical divisions between the Computational and the Experimental, Testing and Sensing Areas.
� MULTISCALE SCIENCE – ENGINEERING INTEGRATION; A New Cooperative
Environment for Academia – Research – Industry – SW & Consulting Companies
A Fundamental Characteristics of the “Integrated Strategic Multiscale Framework” is to allow for a smooth, continuous, efficient, structured and timely transfer of scientific knowledge inside the Technology Development, Engineering and Manufacturing Processes and related Computational Frameworks. Multiscale Modeling and Simulation Allows to establish a firm two – way connection between the Scientific and the Engineering/Manufacturing Worlds
� A NEW GENERATION OF MULTISCALE PRODUCTS AND MANUFACTURING PROCESSES Engineering and Manufacturing are quickly changing. Science has already become a key issue and value for both the fields and this trend will become increasingly important in the coming years. Many Projects have clearly demonstrated that, today, is possible to use Multiscale (Science – Engineering) Computational Methodologies to Design and Manufacture A New Generation of new “Inherently” Hierarchical Multiscale Materials, Devices, Components, Systems (Nano To Macro Integration) and related Manufacturing Processes (Additive Manufacturing).
