THIS work fills a distinct gap in the mathematical student's library by giving an account of tensor methods in their application to the more elementary problems of geometry and physics. Of the four ...

University calculus courses can often negatively and inequitably affect student success in STEM, as these challenging yet foundational classes can act as a barrier to achievement for students from ...

Biology majors and pre-health students at many colleges and universities are required to take a semester of calculus but rarely do such students see authentic applications of its techniques and ...

The sums of squares in the general unequal numbers analysis of variance for an n-way or n-factor classification may be obtained in general terms from standard regression theory. However, the computing ...

Fractal calculus represents a significant extension of traditional calculus, providing a robust framework for the analysis of functions defined on irregular, non-differentiable fractal sets. This ...

Want to model the progress of a disease over a month's time? Sure, just write a calculus equation that would model the statistics of the disease's progression for one hour at a time. Got that done?

Math frequently features in my dreams, and never in a good way. In the latest nightmare I was punted back to high school to retake precalculus. I sat there, embarrassed, hoping to will myself into ...

Calculus to the level of ODEs, partial derivative and multiple integrals, some knowledge of PDEs helpful but not essential. Students should have a certain comfort level with dealing with advanced ...

Calculus has touched everyone's lives to some degree, said Dr. Kening Lu, Brigham Young University's Karl G. Maeser Distinguished Faculty Lecturer and professor of mathematics, at Tuesday's forum in ...
