Interface, especially bio-inorganic one, has been emerging as an indispensable and remarkable component for the breadth and depth of its impact on society as well as other scientific disciplines, especially in energy and medicine and health. These complex hybrid material systems, especially at small scale, require the marriage of advancement of theoretical studies, exploitation of computational methods, and non-traditional experimental validation to unveil their underpinning mechanism. This mini-symposium will center on the recent research advances in computational modeling, theoretical analysis, and experimental characterization of interfaces in the hybrid material systems at nano/micro scale. Contributions from researchers in the fields of solid/?uid mechanics, materials science, physics and engineering are cordially invited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Multiple length/time scale material modeling and simulations
- Novel characterization method across multiple length/time scales
- Polymer composites
- Biocomposites
- Interaction between biological materials and inorganic nanoparticles, such as enzyme for energy conversion, DNA-enabled nanosystems
- Bio-inspired materials and biomimetic nanocomposites
