Numbers and networks: how can we use mathematics to assess the resilience of global supply chains? At Brigham Young University in the US, Dr Zach Boyd is using his mathematical skills to determine how best to protect our supply chains. BUILDING MATHEMATICAL MODELS. Published: July 13, 2022.

But by the end of the 1800s, with the existence of molecules increasingly firmly established, the Second Law began to often be treated as an almost-mathematically-proven necessary law of physics. There were still mathematical loose ends, as well as issues such as its application to living systems and to systems involving gravity.

Many would say that modern exact science was launched in the 1600s with the introduction of what we can call the “ mathematical paradigm ”: the idea that things in the world can be described by mathematical equations—and that their behavior can be determined by finding solutions to these equations.

the same integral could still be done, but only in terms of elliptic integrals : Mathematical Functions: A Milestone Is Reached. Special functions are in a sense a way of packaging mathematical knowledge : once you know that the solution to your equation is a Lamé function , that immediately tells you lots of mathematical things about it.

Line, Surface and Contour Integration “Find the integral of the function ” is a typical core thing one wants to do in calculus. But particularly in applications of calculus, it’s common to want to ask slightly more elaborate questions, like “What’s the integral of over the region ?”, or “What’s the integral of along the line ?”

It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus). His father ’s university engineering studies had been cut short by the Russian Revolution, and he now had a one-man wholesale electronic parts business.
