Computer Simulations in Science And Engineering

This book addresses key conceptual issues relating to the modern scientific and engineering use of computer simulations. It analyses a broad set of questions, from the nature of computer simulations to their epistemological power, including the many scientific, social and ethics implications of using computer simulations. The book is written in an easily accessible narrative, one that weaves together philosophical questions and scientific technicalities. It will thus appeal equally to all academic scientists, engineers, and researchers in industry interested in questions (and conceivable answers) related to the general practice of computer simulations.

The book consists chapters illustrating a wide range of areas where MATLAB tools are applied. Many interesting problems have been included throughout the book, and its contents will be beneficial for students and professionals in wide areas of interest.

This book presents a review of some activities in modeling and simulation processes. Book's contents will be beneficial for students and professionals in wide areas of interest. The book consists chapters illustrating a wide range of areas where MATLAB tools are applied.

This workshop series was initiated by Myron Tribus and Edwin T. Jaynes, and organised for the first time by C.Ray Smith and Walter T. Grandy in 1981 at the University in Wyoming. Since then, tremendous progress has been made and the number of publications based on Bayesian methods is impressive
