MULTICUBED: Multiscale-multiphysics simulation of food processing

Following a review of multiscale simulation methodology, and previous examples models from food science, we present our framework MULTI3 (MULTICUBED), which is developed especially with structuring processes in mind. This acknowledges the multiphase, multiphysics nature structuring. The MULTICUBED assumes at three scales: molecular microscale, mesoscale structure, macroscale products processing equipment. We propose appropriate methods for various scales, also discuss required coupling between scales framework. From literature propagate use Scale Separation Map as tool to determine type scales. Furthermore, decision tree aid science modeller choosing right
