Cellular Automata: Innovative Modelling for Science and Engineering
Modelling and simulation are disciplines of major importance for science and engineering. There is no science without models, and simulation has nowadays become a very useful tool, sometimes unavoidable, for development of both science and engineering. The main attractive feature of cellular automata is that, in spite of their conceptual simplicity which allows an easiness of implementation for computer simulation, as a detailed and complete mathematical analysis in principle, they are able to exhibit a wide variety of amazingly complex behaviour.
Mathematical Applications and Modelling: Yearbook 2010, Association of Mathematics Educators
"Mathematical Applications and Modelling" is the second in the series of the yearbooks of the Association of Mathematics Educators in Singapore. The book is unique as it addresses a focused theme on mathematics education. The objective is to illustrate the diversity within the theme and present research that translates into classroom pedagogies.
Algorithms for Approximation: Proceedings of the 5th International Conference, Chester, July 2005
Approximation methods are vital in many challenging applications of computational science and engineering. This is a collection of papers from world experts in a broad variety of relevant applications, including pattern recognition, machine learning, multiscale modelling of fluid flow, metrology, geometric modelling, tomography, signal and image processing.
The material covered in the book includes concepts of linear regression, univariate and multivariate time series modelling and their implementation in EViews. Chapter 1 briefly introduces commands, structure and programming language of the EViews package. Chapter 2 provides an overview of the regression analysis and its inference. Chapters 3 to 5 cover some topics of univariate time series analysis including linear models, GARCH models of volatility, unit root tests. Chapter 6 introduces modelling of multivariate time series.
Modelling and Painting Figures (Osprey Modelling Manuals - 08)
Probably the greatest test of the modeller is achieving the perfectly posed figure. This title explains how best to set up the figure, and goes on to deal with the niceties of painting, facial expressions, clothing etc. With no detail unexplored, everything is clearly explained with step by step photos. From the Publisher A perfect combination of easy-to-follow text combined with comprehensive step-by-step photography make Osprey Modelling Manuals indispensable reference guides for modellers of all standards and abilities.
