During the next decade a few scientists worked up
simple mathematical models of the planet's climate system and turned up feedbacks that could make the system surprisingly sensitive.
Investigating Epidemics: maths and biology This project contains three
simple mathematical models for the spread of an epidemic: Standing Disease, Network Disease and Counter Plague.
It was especially satisfying to find that
relatively simple mathematical models and analyses could explain puzzling changes in the epidemic patterns of measles in large cities in the 20th century.
People who are open - minded are beginning to realise that the results of our paper are beautiful:
simple mathematical models based on standard natural selection are sufficient to explain the evolution of eusociality or other phenomena in social evolution.
A
very simple mathematical model of epidemics appears to account for the evolution of Myspace and Facebook, argue John Cannarella and Joshua Spechler, graduate students in mechanical and aerospace engineering at Princeton University in a paper posted to the arXiv preprint server.
Predicting if flutter occurs, for a given flexible object in a given fluid flow, is typically not the problem;
simple mathematical models can often accomplish this.
Although steeped in the phytosociology of peasant dominated «sustainable» landscapes, by 1931 Vladimir Stanchinskii had worked out
a simple mathematical model of energy flow in a community.
They came up with
a simple mathematical model, published today in Biology Letters, to see how fast a quadruped could accelerate without tipping over backward.
At Middlesex University, we have developed
a simple mathematical model which includes the basic parameters of a possible attack, such as the behaviour of the politician, the assailant or assailants and the available defences.
They have developed
a simple mathematical model that has helped them show how turbulent flows will evolve over intervals.
To develop
a simple mathematical model along these lines, «the interaction between micrometeorological features and vegetation should be included,» De Decker pointed out.
A simple mathematical model, in which cells are described as persistent random walkers that adapt their motion to that of their neighbours, captures the essential characteristics of these breathing oscillations.
It used
a simple mathematical model, and IPCC data, to suggest that even if CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere doubled, which might take the rest of the century, average global temperature would not rise by much more than 1 degree Celsius.
