Computer Simulation of Realistic Mathematical Models
How to model the interaction between prey and predators, as well as the evolution of epidemics
What you’ll learn
-
How to create and interpret computer simulations of real-life mathematical models using open-source software
-
How epidemics evolve
-
How the prey-predator model (or Lotka-Volterra model) explains a variety of real-world phenomena
-
How the parameters of the model affect results
Requirements
-
the basics of calculus could be enough, especially what derivatives and functions are.
Who this course is for:
- Students who want to understand how to implement mathematical models using Scilab
- Students who want to understand how to construct a mathematical model
