Population dynamics is the type of mathematics used to model and study the size and age composition of populations as dynamical systems.Population dynamics is a branch of mathematical biology, and uses mathematical techniques such as differential equations to model behaviour.
Human Dynamics as a branch of statistical physics: Its main goal is to understand human behavior using methods originally developed in statistical physics.
Estimates of world population by their nature are an aspect of modernity, possible only since the Age of Discovery.Early estimates for the population of the world [10] date to the 17th century: William Petty, in 1682, estimated the world population at 320 million (current estimates ranging close to twice this number); by the late 18th century, estimates ranged close to one billion (consistent ...
Human overpopulation (or human population overshoot) is the idea that human populations may become too large to be sustained by their environment or resources in the long term.
The Human Terrain System (HTS) was a United States Army, Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) support program employing personnel from the social science disciplines – such as archaeology, anthropology, sociology, political science, historians, regional studies, and linguistics – to provide military commanders and staff with an understanding of the local population (i.e. the "human ...
The Work System Framework. The work system approach for understanding systems includes both a static view of a current (or proposed) system in operation and a dynamic view of how a system evolves over time through planned change and unplanned adaptations.
The first principle of population dynamics is widely regarded as the exponential law of Malthus, as modelled by the Malthusian growth model.The early period was dominated by demographic studies such as the work of Benjamin Gompertz and Pierre François Verhulst in the early 19th century, who refined and adjusted the Malthusian demographic model.
