Epidemic Modelling
An Introduction
Av D. J. Daley, J. Gani
Häftad, 2001
810 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This general introduction to the ideas and techniques required for the mathematical modelling of diseases begins with an outline of some disease statistics dating from Daniel Bernoulli's 1760 smallpox data. The authors then describe simple deterministic and stochastic models in continuous and …

1351 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The human brain contains billions of nerve cells whose activity plays a critical role in the way we behave, feel, perceive, and think. This two-volume set explains the basic properties of a neuron - an electrically active nerve cell - and develops mathematical theories for the way neurons respond …
Biological Delay Systems
Linear Stability Theory
Av N. MacDonald, C. Cannings m. fl.
Häftad, 2008

Biological Kinetics
Av Lee A. Segel
Häftad, 2008
764 kr

The Theory of the Chemostat
Dynamics of Microbial Competition
Häftad, 2008
1090 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The chemostat is a basic piece of laboratory apparatus, yet it has occupied an increasingly central role in ecological studies. The ecological environment created by a chemostat is one of the few completely controlled experimental systems for testing microbial growth and competition. As a tool in …
Mathematical Ecology of Plant Species Competition
Av Anthony G. Pakes, R. A. Maller
Häftad, 2009
684 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Presented in this document is a class of deterministic models describing the dynamics of two plant species whose characteristics are common to the majority of annual plants that have a seedbank. Formulated in terms of elementary dynamical systems, these models were developed in response to four …
Mechanics of Swimming and Flying
Häftad, 1981
658 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This book provides a clear and concise summary of the fluid dynamics of the locomotion of living organisms. The biological phenomena described in detail range from the swimming of bacteria and fish to the flying of insects and birds. The breadth of treatment requires the study of two basic …
Mathematical Methods of Population Biology
Av Frank C. Hoppensteadt, C. Cannings
Häftad, 1982
536 kr
Lägg i varukorg
This introduction to mathematical methods that are useful for studying population phenomena is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and will be accessible to scientists who do not have a strong mathematics background. The material is graded in mathematical difficulty. The …
Genealogical Genetic Structure
Av C. Cannings
Häftad, 1981
667 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Although the long-term processes of evolution are selection and mutation, the infrastructure of a population is a no less important force in determining the distributions of genetic characteristics observable within populations. In small populations, and in particular in human populations, complex …

Evolution in Age-Structured Populations
Av Brian Charlesworth, C. Cannings m. fl.
Häftad, 1994
927 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The populations of many species of animals and plants are age-structured, i.e. the individuals present at any one time were born over a range of different times, and their fertility and survival depend on age. The properties of such populations are important for interpreting experiments and …
