Mathematical Modeling Of Real World Problems

Data mining provides avenues for proper understanding of real world problems. For researchers interested in data mining and new applications, this book is a multidisciplinary 'handbook' in data processes, engineering and medical applications. The authors from the different parts of the world discuss major issues of importance for integrated mathematical implementation and developing experiences. From the general spectrum, the individual spectra can be allowing for separate detection and monitoring of the problem by decomposing the space and time series into signal and noise components. It provides an up-front review of mathematical modeling of real world problems and interdisciplinary studies in applied mathematics that are not only for scientists, engineers, planners or, social scientists but because also everyone can read and understand the real world problems from environment to medicine and their interaction to mathematical implementation. Mathematical studies of the book are aimed to analyze and visualize real world problems in engineering and environmental studies like drought survey, precipitation and erosivity, cloud clarification, estimation of convection scheme and non-linear time series of air pollution, water management, water quality and river pollution and also in medical sciences like, ECG analyses, neurosurgery, computational neuroscience, brain disasters, Parkinson diseases, support vector machine, logic and mathematics. Authors recommend it to researchers with an interest in interaction of social, environmental, agricultural and medical scientists, engineers and planners who are applying wavelets and applied mathematics in their research. The book was edited by Prof. Dr. Zafer ASLAN - Istanbul Aydın University, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Funda DÃKMEN - Kocaeli University, Prof. Dr. Abul Hasan SIDDIQI - Sharda University and Prof. Dr. Enrico FEOLI - University of Trieste.

Over the past decade there has been an increasing demand for suitable material in the area of mathematical modelling as applied to science, engineering, business and management. Recent developments in computer technology and related software have provided the necessary tools of increasing power and sophistication which have significant implications for the use and role of mathematical modelling in the above disciplines. In the past, traditional methods have relied heavily on expensive experimentation and the building of scaled models, but now a more flexible and cost effective approach is available through greater use of mathematical modelling and computer simulation. In particular, developments in computer algebra, symbolic manipulation packages and user friendly software packages for large scale problems, all have important implications in both the teaching of mathematical modelling and, more importantly, its use in the solution of real world problems. Many textbooks have been published which cover the art and techniques of modelling as well as specific mathematical modelling techniques in specialist areas within science and business. 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. This textbook is quite different in that it is intended to build on and enhance students’ modelling skills using a combination of case studies and projects.

The critical step in the use of mathematics for solving real world problems is the building of a suitable mathematical model. This book advocates a novel approach to the teaching of the building process for mathematical models, with emphasis on the art as well as the science aspects. Using a case study approach, the book teaches the mathematical modelling process in a comprehensive framework, presenting an overview of the concepts and techniques needed for modelling. The book is structured in three parts; the first dealing with the science aspect; the second dealing with the art aspects; and the third combining self learning exercises for the student and supplementary resource material for the instructor.

This volume centers on the links between mathematics and the physical world. It first explores future challenges of mathematical technology, offers a wide-ranging definition of industrial mathematics, and explains the mathematics of type-II superconductors. After lucid discussions on theoretical and applied aspects of wavelets, the book presents classical and fractal methods for physical problems, including a fractal approach to porous media textures and using MATLAB to model chaos in the motion of a satellite. The final section surveys recent trends in variational methods, focusing on areas such as elliptic inverse problems, sweeping processes, and the BBKY hierarchy of quantum kinetic equations.

This book explores the option of building on symbolizing, modeling and tool use as personally meaningful activities of students. It discusses the dimension of setting: varying from the study of informal, spontaneous activity of students, to an explicit focus on instructional design, and goals and effects of instruction; and the dimension of the theoretical framework of the researcher: varying from constructivism, to activity theory, cognitive psychology and instructional-design theory.
