Description:
Scope.
All aspects of mathematical modelling of all types of systems, i. e., of
systems which are:
dynamic or static;
deterministic or stochastic;
continuous or discrete;
lumped parameter or distributed parameter;
linear or nonlinear;
or of any other nature.
Consequently, a wide variety of formal models will be discussed and the term "mathematical model" will include classical models such as differential or difference equations, Markov processes, ARMA models as well as more recent approaches such as Bond graphs or Petri nets. The topics to be discussed will include: modelling theory processes and methods for model formulation, identification, development, reduction and validation etc. (incl. guidelines and check lists); automation of modelling and software aids for modelling; computer modelling and modelling for/by simulation; qualitative modelling including fuzzy and iterative approaches to modelling; modular modelling (especially applied to interdisciplinary fields such as mechatronics or controlled environmental systems); learning networks in modelling; uncertainties in modelling; methodologies for model validation; fitting mathematical models to real processes; the relationship between the modelling approach and problem solutions; comparison of methods for modelling, model reduction and model validation; effects of modelling errors on overall performance of an engineering system (e. g. relationship between modelling and control design); applications in the field of engineering systems and in natural sciences; applications in other fields (such as environmental systems, biotechnology etc.); case studies of a comparison for ideas or methods education in modelling.
