Mathematical modelling

Mathematical modelling

1. Introduction

   • Mathematical description of a real situation

2. Types of models

   • Linear model
   • Quadratic model
   • Exponential model

3. Steps for mathematical modelling

   • Identify the situation
   • Convert the situation into a mathematical model by using certain variables and parametere
   • Apply mathematical knowledge and solve the problem
   • Interpret the result in terms of the original and compare the results with the original
   • If the results are in good agreement, then accept the model, else modify
