  1. 21. Mathematics teachers' conceptions about equations

    Författare :Iiris Attorps; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; algebra; conception; equation; learning; mathematics teacher; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study is to describe and to clarify the mathematics teachers’ subject matter and pedagogical content conceptions about equations. As the basis of these conceptions, the teachers’ experiences of the concept learning of equations from their own school time are described. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Difficult to read or difficult to solve? : The role of natural language and other semiotic resources in mathematics tasks

    Författare :Anneli Dyrvold; Magnus Österholm; Ewa Bergqvist; Johan Lithner; Candia Morgan; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematics education; multisemiotics; task text; difficulty; mathematical reading ability; matematikdidaktik; didactics of mathematics; Mathematics; Pedagogik; Linguistics;

    Sammanfattning : When students solve mathematics tasks, the tasks are commonly given as written text, usually consisting of natural language, mathematical notation and different types of images. This is one reason why reading and interpreting such texts are important parts of being mathematically proficient, at least within the school context. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Computer-aided Computation of Abelian integrals and Robust Normal Forms

    Författare :Tomas Johnson; Warwick Tucker; Lars-Erik Persson; John H. Hubbard; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ordinary differential equations; parameter estimation; planar Hamiltonian systems; bifurcation theory; Abelian integrals; limit cycles; normal forms; hyperbolic fixed points; numerical integration; invariant manifolds; interval analysis. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification. 34A60; 34C07; 34C20; 37D10; 37G15; 37M20; 37M99; 65G20; 65L09; 65L70.; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; matematik; Mathematics;

    Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis consists of a summary and seven papers, where various applications of auto-validated computations are studied. In the first paper we describe a rigorous method to determine unknown parameters in a system of ordinary differential equations from measured data with known bounds on the noise of the measurements.

  5. 24. Numerical analysis and simulation of stochastic partial differential equations with white noise dispersion

    Författare :André Berg; David Cohen; Per Åhag; Guillaume Dujardin; Ludovic Goudenège; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stochastic partial differential equation; mathematics; numerical analysis; numerical scheme; time integrator; convergence analysis; blowup; critical exponent; nonlinear Schrödinger equation; Manakov equation; Benjamin-Bona-Mahony equation; BBM equation; stochastic; random; dispersion; white noise dispersion; finite difference; pseudospectral; code; matlab; exponential integrator; splitting integrator; convergence in probability; Mathematics; matematik; Numerical Analysis; numerisk analys;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis provides a comprehensive numerical analysis and exploration of several stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). More specifically, this thesis investigates time integrators for SPDEs with white noise dispersion. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Evolution of Plants : a mathematical perspective

    Författare :Magnus Lindh; Åke Brännström; Jacob Johansson; Mats G Larson; Lennart Persson; Claus Rüffler; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evolution; plants; mathematics; optimization; optimal control; adaptive dynamics; flowering; seasons; tree crown; drought; taproot; trade-off; strategy; trait; ESS; NPP; LAI; Red Queen; Mathematics; matematik;

    Sammanfattning : The Earth harbors around 300 000 plant species. The rich and complex environment provided by plants is considered a key factor for the extraordinary diversity of the terrestrial fauna by, for example, providing food and shelter. LÄS MER
