Mathematical Advances Towards Sustainable Environmental Systems by James N. Furze, Kelly Swing, Anil K. Gupta, Richard H. McClatchey, Darren M. ReynoldsEnglish | PDF (True) | 2017 | 355 Pages | ISBN : 3319439006 | 7.5 MB
This edited volume focuses on how we can protect our environment and enhance environmental sustainability when faced with changes and pressures imposed by our expansive needs. The volume unites multiple subject areas within sustainability, enabling the techniques and philosophy in the chapters to be applied to research areas in environmental science, plant sciences, energy, biodiversity and conservation. The chapters from expert contributors cover topics such as mathematical modelling tools used to monitor diversity of plant species, and the stability of ecosystem services such as biogeochemical cycling. Empirical research presented here also brings together mathematical developments in the important fields of robotics including kinematics, dynamics, path planning, control, vision, and swarmanoids.
