Description
This comprehensive guide to mathematical modelling techniques is written by Rutherford Aris, a distinguished theoretical chemist and engineer. It provides helpful rules for setting up models, solving mathematical problems, and evaluating their effectiveness.
The author begins with an explanation of the term "model" and presents examples of different types, including finite, statistical, and stochastic models. He then discusses how to formulate a model and manipulate it into its most responsive form.
With numerous examples and appendices offering further detail, this book is a valuable resource for anyone looking to apply mathematical modelling techniques in their work or studies. It includes three appendices with additional examples on topics such as longitudinal diffusion and the coated tube chromatograph.
