  5. Boussinesq approximation (water waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boussinesq_approximation...

    While the Boussinesq equations allow for waves traveling simultaneously in opposing directions, it is often advantageous to only consider waves traveling in one direction. Under small additional assumptions, the Boussinesq equations reduce to: the Korteweg–de Vries equation for wave propagation in one horizontal dimension,

  7. Perturbation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perturbation_theory

    The earliest use of what would now be called perturbation theory was to deal with the otherwise unsolvable mathematical problems of celestial mechanics: for example the orbit of the Moon, which moves noticeably differently from a simple Keplerian ellipse because of the competing gravitation of the Earth and the Sun.

  8. Variation of parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variation_of_parameters

    In mathematics, variation of parameters, also known as variation of constants, is a general method to solve inhomogeneous linear ordinary differential equations.. For first-order inhomogeneous linear differential equations it is usually possible to find solutions via integrating factors or undetermined coefficients with considerably less effort, although those methods leverage heuristics that ...

  9. Louis Bachelier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Bachelier

    Louis Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Bachelier (French:; 11 March 1870 – 28 April 1946) [1] was a French mathematician at the turn of the 20th century. He is credited with being the first person to model the stochastic process now called Brownian motion, as part of his doctoral thesis The Theory of Speculation (Théorie de la spéculation, defended in 1900).
