Book Description
This book discusses significant research findings in the field of mathematical modelling, with particular emphasis on important applied-sciences, health, and social issues. It includes topics such as model on viral immunology, stochastic models for the dynamics of influenza, model describing the transmission of dengue, model for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, prostate cancer model, realization of economic growth by goal programming, modelling of grazing periodic solutions in discontinuous systems, modelling of predation system, fractional epidemiological model for computer viruses, and nonlinear ecological models. A unique addition in the proposed areas of research and education, this book is a valuable resource for graduate students, researchers and educators associated with the study of mathematical modelling of health, social and applied-sciences issues. Readers interested in applied mathematics should also find this book valuable. .

Book Description
This book is devoted to the power of mathematical modelling to give an answer to a broad diversity of real problems including medicine, finance, social behavioural problems and many engineering problems. Mathematical modelling in social sciences is very recent and comes with special challenges such as the difficulty to manage human behaviour, the role of the model hypothesis with the objectivity/subjectivity and the proper understanding of the conclusions. In this book, the reader will find several behavioural mathematical models that in fact may be understood as the so-called epidemiological models in the sense that they deal with populations instead of individuals.

Book Description
Mathematical models in the social sciences have become increasingly sophisticated and widespread in the last decade. This period has also seen many critiques, most lamenting the sacrifices incurred in pursuit of mathematical perfection. If, as critics argue, our ability to understand the world has not improved during the mathematization of the social sciences, we might want to adopt a different paradigm. This book examines the three main fields of mathematical modeling--game theory, statistics, and computational methods--and proposes a new framework for modeling.

Book Description
When deadly illness spreads through a population at a rapid pace, time may be of the essence in order to save lives. Using mathematics as a language to interpret assumptions concerning the biological and population mechanics, one can make predictions by analyzing actual epidemiological data using mathematical tests and results. Mathematical models can help us understand the right disease status and predict the effects of the disease on populations, which can help limit the spread and devastation of the illness. Mathematical Models of Infectious Diseases and Social Issues is a collection of innovative research that examines the dynamics of diseases and their effect on populations. Featuring coverage of a broad range of topics including deterministic models, environmental pollution, and social issues, this book is ideally designed for diagnosticians, clinicians, healthcare providers, pharmacists, government health officials, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.

Book Description
This is a rich and exciting collection of examples and applications in mathematical modelling. There is broad variety, balance and highly motivating material and most of this assumes minimal mathematical training.

Book Description
"This book began as lecture notes developed in connection with a course of the same name given since 1968 at Indiana University. The audience can be loosely grouped as follows: junior and senior mathematics majors, many of whom contemplate graduate work in other fields; undergraduate and graduate students majoring in the social and life sciences and in business; and prospective secondary teachers of mathematics. In addition, portions of the material have been used in NSF institutes for mathematics teachers. The goal of the course has been to provide the student with an appreciation for, an understanding of, and a facility in the use of mathematics in other fields. The role of mathematical models in explaining and predicting phenomena arising in the real world is the central theme." --Preface.

Book Description
This edited volume presents examples of social science research projects that employ new methods of quantitative analysis and mathematical modeling of social processes. This book presents the fascinating areas of empirical and theoretical investigations that use formal mathematics in a way that is accessible for individuals lacking extensive expertise but still desiring to expand their scope of research methodology and add to their data analysis toolbox. Mathematical Modeling of Social Relationships professes how mathematical modeling can help us understand the fundamental, compelling, and yet sometimes complicated concepts that arise in the social sciences. This volume will appeal to upper-level students and researchers in a broad area of fields within the social sciences, as well as the disciplines of social psychology, complex systems, and applied mathematics.
