Advances in Multiscale Modeling of Lignocellulosic Biomass
2020
Applications and associated processing technologies of lignocellulosic biomass are becoming increasingly important as we endeavor to meet societal demand for fuels, chemicals, and materials from renewable resources. Meanwhile, the rapidly expanding availability and capabilities of high-performance computing present an unprecedented opportunity to accelerate development of technologies surrounding lignocellulose utilization. In order to realize this potential, suitable modeling frameworks must be constructed that effectively capture the multiscale complexity and tremendous variety exhibited by lignocellulosic materials. In our assessment of previous endeavors towards this goal, several important shortcomings have been identified: (1) the lack of multiscale integration strategies that capture emergent properties and behaviors spanning different length scales, and (2) the inability of many modeling approaches to effectively capture the variability and diversity of lignocellulose that arise from both natural ...
