We will describe various spatio-temporal coarse-graining procedures to understand the thermodynamic behavior and evolution of general atomistic/particle models. We will first revisit the equilibrium setting, providing further insights into the thermodynamic potentials and the interplay between temperature and the mechanical behavior. Then, we will move to the non-equilibrium setting, where we will discuss how to compute macroscopic dissipative evolutions, in particular parameters. In all cases, the results will be validated with full resolution particle simulations.
