The aim of this monograph is to describe the main concepts and recent - vances in multiscalefinite element methods. This monograph is intended for the broader audience including engineers, applied scientists, and for those who are interested in multiscale simulations. The book is intended for graduate students in applied mathematics and those interested in multiscale compu- tions. It combines a practical introduction, numerical results, and analysis of multiscalefinite element methods. Due to the page limitation, the material has been condensed. Each chapter of the book starts with an introduction and description of the proposed methods and motivating examples. Some new techniques are introduced using formal arguments that are justified later in the last chapter. Numerical examples demonstrating the significance of the proposed methods are presented in each chapter following the description of the methods. In the last chapter, we analyze a few representative cases with the objective of demonstrating the main error sources and the convergence of the proposed methods. A brief outline of the book is as follows. The first chapter gives a general introduction to multiscale methods and an outline of each chapter. The second chapter discusses the main idea of the multiscalefinite element method and its extensions. This chapter also gives an overview of multiscalefinite element methods and other related methods. The third chapter discusses the ext- sion of multiscalefinite element methods to nonlinear problems. The fourth chapter focuses on multiscale methods that use limited global information.
