Free Download Modelling Regional Scenarios for the Enlarged Europe: European Competiveness and Global Strategies By Roberta Capello, Roberto Camagni, Barbara Chizzolini, Ugo Fratesi (auth.)
2008 | 329 Pages | ISBN: 3540747362 | PDF | 18 MB
Tackling the question of what the European territory will look like over the next fifteen years, this volume provides quali-quantitative territorial scenarios for the enlarged Europe, under different assumptions on future globalisation strategies of BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) and East and West European countries. The approach is as neutral as possible vis- -vis the results, leading to a new forecasting model, the MASST model, built by the authors, to produce the tendencies and behavioural paths of regional GDP and population growth in each individual European region under alternative assumptions on the competitiveness strategies of different blocks of countries. The results are accompanied by strong policy messages intended to encourage long-term strategic thinking among a wide range of actors, scientists and policy makers in response to the risks and opportunities that the European territory will face.

Free Download Gangqiang Kong, Wanghua Sui, "Transparent Soil Modelling Technique and Its Application"
English | 2022 | ISBN: 9811968241, 9811968276 | PDF | pages: 365 | 16.3 mb
This book systematically introduces the advancement of transparent soil modelling technique and its application. The transparent soil modelling technique provides an essential tool for visualizing soil-structure interaction and other geotechnical problems such as grouting, soil plugging. The geotechnical properties of the newest transparent soils were reported on model sand, clay and rock. In addition, more advanced image processing methods were summarized. In this book, numerous applications of transparent soil modelling techniques for different geotechnical problems were presented, and the results obtained are supplemented by numerical calculation and theoretical analysis.

Free Download The What and How of Modelling Information and Knowledge: From Mind Maps to Ontologies by C. Maria Keet
English | November 18, 2023 | ISBN: 3031396944 | 192 pages | MOBI | 5.17 Mb
The main aim of this book is to introduce a group of models and modelling of information and knowledge comprehensibly. Such models and the processes for how to create them help to improve the skills to analyse and structure thoughts and ideas, to become more precise, to gain a deeper understanding of the matter being modelled, and to assist with specific tasks where modelling helps, such as reading comprehension and summarisation of text. The book draws ideas and transferrable approaches from the plethora of types of models and the methods, techniques, tools, procedures, and methodologies to create them in computer science.

Free Download Teaching Mathematical Modelling: Connecting to Research and Practice By Gloria Ann Stillman, Gabriele Kaiser (auth.), Gloria Ann Stillman, Gabriele Kaiser, Werner Blum, Jill P. Brown (eds.)
2013 | 627 Pages | ISBN: 9400765398 | PDF | 9 MB
This book provides readers with an overview of recent international research and developments in the teaching and learning of modelling and applications from a variety of theoretical and practical perspectives. There is a strong focus on pedagogical issues for teaching and learning of modelling as well as research into teaching and practice. The teaching of applications of mathematics and mathematical modelling from the early years through primary and secondary school and at tertiary level is rising in prominence in many parts of the world commensurate with an ever-increasing usage of mathematics in business, the environment, industry and everyday life. The authors are all members of the International Community of Teachers of Mathematical Modelling and Applications and important researchers in mathematics education and mathematics. The book will be of interest to teachers, practitioners and researchers in universities, polytechnics, teacher education, curriculum and policy.​

Free Download Modelling the Dispersion of Radionuclides in the Marine Environment: An Introduction By Dr. Raúl Periáñez (auth.)
2005 | 201 Pages | ISBN: 3540248757 | PDF | 4 MB
This book is a practical guide to the subject of numerical modelling of radioactivity dispersion in the marine environment. Thus, the techniques and numerical procedures required are explained in detail, with the aim of enabling the reader to build a real mathematical model. The book covers basic concepts and techniques, such as solving the advection-diffusion equation in a simple 1D form, as well as the most recent developments (full 3D models for non-conservative radionuclides including chemical reactions and speciation). A chapter is dedicated to the basic hydrodynamic modelling that is always required to simulate the dispersion of tracers in the sea; Eulerian and Lagrangian modelling techniques are also described. A chapter describes sensitivity and uncertainty analysis, the final stage in modelling works. A review on some published radionuclide dispersion models is also included.
