With Applications to Biology and Environmental Science

Short Description:
This book is an approachable introduction to calculus with applications to biology and environmental science. For example, one application in the book is determining the volume of earth moved in the 1959 earthquake that created Quake Lake. Another application uses differential equations to model various biological examples, including moose and wolf populations at Isle Royale National Park, ranavirus in amphibians, and competing species of protozoa. The text focuses on intuitive understanding of concepts, but still covers most of the algebra and calculations common in a survey of calculus course.

Rating
0.0 stars

This workbook is primarily for students taking a first-year single variable integral calculus course. Topics covered include integration, techniques of integration, differential equations, and infinite series. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part featuring a diverse set of problems with some practical applications. The second part includes the solutions (each problem has a very detailed solution). Summaries of concepts are also included to make the workbook self-contained. OER Description: This problem bank was developed to support undergraduate lower-division students in integral calculus. Using practice problems with detailed solutions, solution prompts, examples, and concept summaries, this open educational resource supports students in building the problem-solving skills needed to master calculus.

Interactive Kite Modeler
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

KiteModeler was developed in an effort to foster hands-on, inquiry-based learning in science and math. KiteModeler is a simulator that models the design, trimming, and flight of a kite. The program works in three modes: Design Mode, Trim Mode, or Flight Mode. In the Design Mode (shown below), you pick from five basic types of kite designs. You can then change design variables including the length and width of various sections of the kite. You can also select different materials for each component. When you have a design that you like, you switch to the Trim Mode where you set the length of the bridle string and tail and the location of the knot attaching the bridle to the control line. Based on your inputs, the program computes the center of gravity and pressure, the magnitude of the aerodynamic forces and the weight, and determines the stability of your kite. With a stable kite design, you are ready for Flight Mode. In Flight Mode you set the wind speed and the length of control line. The program then computes the sag of the line caused by the weight of the string and the height and distance that your kite would fly. Using all three modes, you can investigate how a kite flies, and the factors that affect its performance.

An Open Education Resource

Short Description:
Mathematical modelling plays an increasingly important role in almost any area of life sciences, and this interactive textbook focuses on the areas of population ecology, infectious diseases, immunology and cell dynamics, gene networks and pharmacokinetics. It is aimed at anyone who is interested in learning about how to model biological systems, including undergraduate and postgraduate mathematics students who have not studied mathematical biology before, life-sciences students with an interest in modelling, and post-16 mathematics students interested in university-level material. Some mathematical knowledge is assumed, and the mathematical models used are all in the form of ordinary differential equations.

This textbook, or really a “coursebook” for a college freshman-level class, has been updated for Spring 2014 and provides an introduction to programming and problem solving using both Matlab and Mathcad. We provide a balanced selection of introductory exercises and real-world problems (i.e. no “contrived” problems). We include many examples and screenshots to guide the reader. We assume no prior knowledge of Matlab or Mathcad.

Introduction to Real Analysis

Rating
0.0 stars

This is a text for a two-term course in introductory real analysis for junior or senior mathematics majors and science students with a serious interest in mathematics. Prospective educators or mathematically gifted high school students can also benefit from the mathematical maturity that can be gained from an introductory real analysis course.

The book is designed to fill the gaps left in the development of calculus as it is usually presented in an elementary course, and to provide the background required for insight into more advanced courses in pure and applied mathematics. The standard elementary calculus sequence is the only specific prerequisite for Chapters 1–5, which deal with real-valued functions. (However, other analysis oriented courses, such as elementary differential equation, also provide useful preparatory experience.) Chapters 6 and 7 require a working knowledge of determinants, matrices and linear transformations, typically available from a first course in linear algebra. Chapter 8 is accessible after completion of Chapters 1–5.

This is an open-access textbook for calculus-based introductory physics courses. Anyone that complies with the license is welcome to modify and use this work for their own use, and we hope that you will choose to contribute. The textbook is specifically intended for a flipped-classroom approach, wherein students complete readings at home and the material is then discussed in class. The textbook thus contains questions and activities to engage readers. This text also includes a curriculum in experimental physics, detailing the scientific method and process, suggesting experiments to perform at home and in the lab, and has chapters that cover: writing and reviewing proposals, writing and reviewing reports, analyzing data, as well as an introduction to python. Finally, this textbook was written with many contributions from students! We hope that you may find it useful, and we are interested to know if you are using it!

LE FRAZIONI DECIMALI

Le frazioni che hanno al denominatore 10, 100, 100, 10000 sono dette frazioni decimali.Tutte le frazioni decimali possono essere scritte sotto forma di numeri decimali.Come possiamo procedere?-Poichè la frazione corrisponde ad una divisione, possiamo dividere il numeratore per il denominatore.es:12/10= 12:10 = 1,27/100 = 7:100 = 0,0715/1000 = 15:1000 = 0,015-Oppure possiamo scrivere il numeratore ed inserire la virgola in modo che vi siano tante cifre decimali quanti sono gli zeri del denominatore.Es:1545/100 = 15,451467/10 = 146,7 -Viceversa, per trasformare un numero decimale in frazione decimale si scrive una frazione che ha al numeratore il numero senza virgola, mentre il denominatore sarà 10, 100, 1000 a seconda delle cifre decimali del numero di partenza.Es:1,6 = 16/1014,45 = 1445/1002,347 = 2347/1000ESEGUI GLI ESERCIZI

Introduction to the theory and techniques of differential and integral calculus of elementary functions with emphasis on applications in business and finance, taught both online and in-person in Fall 2022 at Yavapai College. Note: Computer use and graphing calculator required (TI-83/84 recommended).This course makes use of an embedded OER textbook, but also uses Lumen OHM homework assignments; these require a subscription to Lumen, which in this instance was provided by the institution. In cases where that is not possible, the homework assignments will need to be replaced, or students will have to pay a fee to access the homework. Contact Lumen to find out more about student access to its homework platforms.
