Titre : | Mathematical models in the applied sciences | Type de document : | texte imprimé | Auteurs : | A.C. FOWLER, Auteur | Editeur : | Cambridge : Cambridge University Press | Année de publication : | 1998 | Collection : | Cambridge Texts in Applied Mathematics, ISSN 1439-7358 | Importance : | XIV-402 p. | Présentation : | ill. | ISBN/ISSN/EAN : | 978-0-521-46703-2 | Langues : | Anglais (eng) | Mots-clés : | modèle mathématique science appliquée | Résumé : | Mathematical modelling is the basis of almost all applied mathematics. A 'real-world' problem is dissected and phrased in a mathematical setting, allowing it to be simplified and ultimately solved. This book presents a thorough grounding in the techniques of modelling, and proceeds to explore a range of classical and continuum models from an impressive array of disciplines, including: biology, chemical engineering, fluid and solid mechanics, geophysics, medicine, and physics. It assumes only a basic mathematical grounding in calculus and analysis and will provide a wealth of examples for students of mathematics, engineering, and the range of applied sciences. | Note de contenu : | index, références |
