The purpose of this volume is to present and discuss the many rich properties of the dynamical systems that appear in life science and medicine. It provides a fascinating survey of the theory of dynamical systems in biology and medicine. Each chapter will serve to introduce students and scholars to the state-of-the-art in an exciting area, to present new results, and to inspire future contributions to mathematical modeling in life science and medicine.
This book is a collection of lecture notes for the LIASFMA Hangzhou Autumn School on 'Control and Inverse Problems for Partial Differential Equations' which was held during October 17-22, 2016 at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. This autumn school is one of the activities organized by Sino-French International Associate Laboratory in Applied Mathematics (LIASFMA). Established jointly by eight institutions in China and France in 2014, LIASFMA aims at providing a platform for many leading French and Chinese mathematicians to conduct in-depth researches, extensive exchanges, and student training in broad areas of applied mathematics.The book provides the readers with a unique and valuable opportunity to learn from and communicate with leading experts in control and inverse problems. And the readers are exposed not only to the basic theories and methods but also to the forefront of research directions in both fields.
It is well known that most problems in science and engineering eventually progress into matrix problems. This book gives an elementary introduction to applied matrix theory and it also includes some new results obtained in recent years.The book consists of eight chapters. It includes perturbation and error analysis; the conjugate gradient method for solving linear systems; preconditioning techniques; and least squares algorithms based on orthogonal transformations, etc. The last two chapters include some latest development in the area. In Chap. 7, we construct optimal preconditioners for functions of matrices. More precisely, let f be a function of matrices. Given a matrix A, there are two c...
This IMA Volume in Mathematics and its Applications MATHEMATICAL APPROACHES FOR EMERGING AND REEMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES: MODELS, AND THEORY METHODS is based on the proceedings of a successful one week workshop. The pro ceedings of the two-day tutorial which preceded the workshop "Introduction to Epidemiology and Immunology" appears as IMA Volume 125: Math ematical Approaches for Emerging and Reemerging Infectious Diseases: An Introduction. The tutorial and the workshop are integral parts of the September 1998 to June 1999 IMA program on "MATHEMATICS IN BI OLOGY. " I would like to thank Carlos Castillo-Chavez (Director of the Math ematical and Theoretical Biology Institute and a member of...
This book grew out of the discussions and presentations that began during the Workshop on Emerging and Reemerging Diseases (May 17-21, 1999) sponsored by the Institute for Mathematics and its Application (IMA) at the University of Minnesota with the support of NIH and NSF. The workshop started with a two-day tutorial session directed at ecologists, epidemiologists, immunologists, mathematicians, and scientists interested in the study of disease dynamics. The core of this first volume, Volume 125, covers tutorial and research contributions on the use of dynamical systems (deterministic discrete, delay, PDEs, and ODEs models) and stochastic models in disease dynamics. The volume includes the study of cancer, HIV, pertussis, and tuberculosis. Beginning graduate students in applied mathematics, scientists in the natural, social, or health sciences or mathematicians who want to enter the fields of mathematical and theoretical epidemiology will find this book useful.
The papers presented in the congress can roughly be classified into the following categories: theoretical and statistical mathematics applied to biological systems; image elaboration; dynamics of biological fluids; dynamics and statics of biological structures and computers in biology and medicine.
Connecting inorganic chemistry to the hottest topic in materials science, this timely resource collects the contributions made by leading inorganic chemists towards nanomaterials research. The second volume in the “Wiley Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry Methods and Applications Series,” this signature title concentrates on recent developments in the field and includes all key topics such as nanowires, nanotubes, biomineralization, supramolecular materials and much more. This volume is also available as part of Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry, 5 Volume Set. This set combines all volumes published as EIC Books from 2007 to 2010, representing areas of key developments in the field of inorganic chemistry published in the Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry.

This second edition of Dru Gladney's critically acclaimed study of the Muslim population in China includes a new preface by the author, as well as a valuable addendum to the bibliography, already hailed as one of the most extensive listing of modern sources on the Sino-Muslims.
This book is mainly a collection of lecture notes for the 2021 LIASFMA International Graduate School on Applied Mathematics. It provides the readers some important results on the theory, the methods, and the application in the field of 'Control of Partial Differential Equations'. It is useful for researchers and graduate students in mathematics or control theory, and for mathematicians or engineers with an interest in control systems governed by partial differential equations.
The intern was framed and her boss was extremely popular, but she was classified by him as a woman who came here to hook up for Kaizi. But so what? She bitterly thought, 'It doesn't matter if my dignity is trampled or my innocence destroyed. She just wants her family to not be afraid. Dad will be able to return the debt because of this ...' That was enough...
