The Mathematical Proficiency Promoted by Mathematical Modelling [PDF]

Journal of Research in Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2021
This study aims to investigate the mathematical proficiency promoted by mathematical modelling tasks that require students to get involved in the processes of developing mathematical models, instead of just using known or given models.

Insights from quantitative and mathematical modelling on the proposed 2030 goal for gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (gHAT) [PDF]

, 2019
Gambiense human African trypanosomiasis (gHAT) is a parasitic, vector-borne neglected tropical disease that has historically affected populations across West and Central Africa and can result in death if untreated.

Mathematical Modelling

Internet Archaeology, 2004
The field of mathematical modelling is long established in archaeology, and since the 1970s has been frequently associated with computing through the development of increasingly complex methodologies ranging from large-scale simulations to Bayesian statistics.

Modelling car-following dynamics with stochastic input-state-output port-Hamiltonian systems [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences
In this contribution, we introduce a general class of car-following models with an input-state-output port-Hamiltonian structure. We derive stability conditions and long-term behavior of the finite system with periodic boundaries and quadratic ...

Modelling line edge roughness in periodic line-space structures by Fourier optics to improve scatterometry [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2014
In the present paper, we propose a 2D-Fourier transform method as a simple and efficient algorithm for stochastical and numerical studies to investigate the systematic impacts of line edge roughness on light diffraction pattern of periodic line-space ...

Quarantine and testing strategies in contact tracing for SARS-CoV-2: a modelling study

The Lancet Public Health, 2021
Summary: Background: In most countries, contacts of confirmed COVID-19 cases are asked to quarantine for 14 days after exposure to limit asymptomatic onward transmission.

SARS-CoV-2 infection risk during delivery of childhood vaccination campaigns: a modelling study

BMC Medicine, 2021
Background The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the delivery of immunisation services globally. Many countries have postponed vaccination campaigns out of concern about infection risks to the staff delivering vaccination, the children being vaccinated ...

Disentangling the Information in Species Interaction Networks

Entropy, 2021
Shannon’s entropy measure is a popular means for quantifying ecological diversity. We explore how one can use information-theoretic measures (that are often called indices in ecology) on joint ensembles to study the diversity of species interaction ...
