Highly useful volume discusses the types of models, how to formulate and manipulate them for best results. Numerous examples.
In most of these books the mathematical material tends to be rather tailor made to fit in with a one or two semester course for teaching students at the undergraduate or postgraduate level, usually the former.
Accessible text features over 100 reality-based examples pulled from the science, engineering, and operations research fields.
The Handbook emphasizes using models and statistics as tools. The objective of the book is to inform readers about which tool to use to accomplish which task.
Can you find a circuit that covers every block exactly once (no deadheading)? If not can you explain why not? ... How does this bear upon Exercises 5 and 6? the number of edges to be added which duplicate e,-.
This book presents mathematical modelling and the integrated process of formulating sets of equations to describe real-world problems.
A basic introduction to Mathematical Modelling, this book encourages the reader to participate in the investigation of a wide variety of modelling examples.
Two major sources of the book are the stock of classic models and the authors' wide experience in the field. The book provides a theoretical background to guide the development of practical models and their investigation.
This textbook demonstrates the power of mathematics in solving practical, scientific, and technical problems through mathematical modelling techniques. The text is combined with 21 carefully ordered problems taken from real situations.
This volume will be of interest to biological and mathematical scientists, as well as physiologists and nephrologists, who would like an introduction to mathematical techniques that can be applied to renal transport and function.
This book provides basic tools for learning how to model in mathematical programming, from models without much complexity to complex system models.
