Mathematical Modelling · Problem Solving

Interpretation and Validation

Checking the results of a mathematical model against real world data and refining the approach.

Key Questions

  1. 1What should we do if our mathematical solution suggests a result that is physically impossible?
  2. 2How can we test the sensitivity of our model to small changes in the input variables?
  3. 3Why is a simpler model sometimes more useful than a highly complex one for decision making?
