  2. Mathematical model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_model

    The process of developing a mathematical model is termed mathematical modeling. Mathematical models are used in applied mathematics and 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 ...

  3. Modeling and simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modeling_and_simulation

    The mathematical model represents the physical model in virtual form, and conditions are applied that set up the experiment of interest. The simulation starts – i.e., the computer calculates the results of those conditions on the mathematical model – and outputs results in a format that is either machine- or human-readable, depending upon ...

  4. Scientific modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_modelling

    Scientific modelling is an activity that produces models representing empirical objects, phenomena, and physical processes, to make a particular part or feature of the world easier to understand, define, quantify, visualize, or simulate.

  5. Computational science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_science

    Computational science and engineering (CSE) is a relatively new [quantify] discipline that deals with the development and application of computational models and simulations, often coupled with high-performance computing, to solve complex physical problems arising in engineering analysis and design (computational engineering) as well as natural ...

  6. Engineering mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_mathematics

    Along with fields like engineering physics and engineering geology, both of which may belong in the wider category engineering science, engineering mathematics is an interdisciplinary subject motivated by engineers' needs both for practical, theoretical and other considerations outside their specialization, and to deal with constraints to be ...

  7. Surrogate model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrogate_model

    A surrogate model is an engineering method used when an outcome of interest cannot be easily measured or computed, so an approximate mathematical model of the outcome is used instead. Most engineering design problems require experiments and/or simulations to evaluate design objective and constraint functions as a function of design variables.

  8. Computer simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation

    Computer simulations have become a useful tool for the mathematical modeling of many natural systems in physics (computational physics), astrophysics, climatology, chemistry, biology and manufacturing, as well as human systems in economics, psychology, social science, health care and engineering. Simulation of a system is represented as the ...

  9. Multiscale modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiscale_modeling

    In meteorology, multiscale modeling is the modeling of the interaction between weather systems of different spatial and temporal scales that produces the weather that we experience. The most challenging task is to model the way through which the weather systems interact as models cannot see beyond the limit of the model grid size.
