Governing Equation
The governing equations of a mathematical model describe how the values of the unknown variables (i.e. the dependent variables) change when one or more of the known (i.e. independent) variables change. Mass balance A mass balance, also called a material balance, is an application of conservation of mass to the analysis of physical systems. It is the simplest governing equation, and it is simply a budget (balance calculation) over the quantity in question: \text + \text = \text + \text \ + \text Differential equation Physics The governing equations in classical physics that are lectured at universities are listed below. * balance of mass * balance of (linear) momentum * balance of angular momentum * balance of energy * balance of entropy * Maxwell-Faraday equation for induced electric field * Ampére-Maxwell equation for induced magnetic field * Gauss equation for electric flux * Gauss equation for magnetic flux Classical continuum mechanics The basic equations in ...

Mathematical Model
A mathematical model is a description of a system using mathematical concepts and language. The process of developing a mathematical model is termed mathematical modeling. Mathematical models are used in the natural sciences (such as physics, biology, earth science, chemistry) and engineering disciplines (such as computer science, electrical engineering), as well as in non-physical systems such as the social sciences (such as economics, psychology, sociology, political science). The use of mathematical models to solve problems in business or military operations is a large part of the field of operations research. Mathematical models are also used in music, linguistics, and philosophy (for example, intensively in analytic philosophy). A model may help to explain a system and to study the effects of different components, and to make predictions about behavior. Elements of a mathematical model Mathematical models can take many forms, including dynamical systems, statisti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
