 Mathematical modeling

Mathematical modeling is the process of creating abstract representations of real-world phenomena using mathematical concepts and structures. It involves formulating problems in mathematical terms to analyze and predict behaviors, relationships, and outcomes within a specific context. The steps in mathematical modeling typically include: 1. **Problem Identification**: Understanding the real-world situation or phenomenon to be modeled. 2. **Assumptions**: Making simplifying assumptions to make the problem manageable while maintaining essential features of the system.
