This brand new series puts learners in charge with an exploratory inquiry-led approach to MYP Mathematics. Each full-colour book and accompanying eBook contains detailed worked examples, reflections, differentiated exercises, and check your knowledge questions to put learning into practice. Clear links to key concepts, related concepts and global contexts in addition to statements of inquiry and inquiry questions for each chapter. ATLs identified throughout. Investigations encourage learners to seek knowledge and develop ATL skills. Written by an international team of highly experienced authors and teachers, and led by Series Editor, Ibrahim Wazir, this new series matches the 2020 Subject Guide.

This book is a comprehensive collection of main mathematical concepts: definitions, theorems, tables, and formulas that the students of science and engineering encounter in their studies and later on in their professional careers. The aim is to introduce mathematics in an up-to-date text that supports the reader/target group to see, easily accessible, ways to approach their questions/problems, meanwhile getting familiar with, often short, mathematical/logical reasoning. The layout is designed so that the theory, applications, and examples are in correlation with each other. The book covers crucial concepts of whole calculus, linear and abstract algebra, as well as analysis, applied math, mathematical statistics, and numerical analysis. Most of the complex theorems appear in a simplified form without affecting their context. There are appendices with Mathematica and MatLab programming, which contain programs of simple character for educational purposes, as well as some more involved ones designed to solve problems of more real application.

New Optimization Algorithms and Applications: Atom-Based, Ecosystem-Based and Economics-Based presents the development of three new optimization algorithms - an Atom Search Optimization (ASO) algorithm, an Artificial Ecosystem-Based Optimization algorithm (AEO), a Supply Demand Based Optimization (SDO), and their applications within engineering. These algorithms are based on benchmark functions and typical engineering cases. The book describes the algorithms in detail and demonstrates how to use them in engineering. The title verifies the performance of the algorithms presented, simulation results are given, and MATLAB (R) codes are provided for the methods described. Over seven chapters, the book introduces ASO, AEO and SDO, and presents benchmark functions, engineering problems, and coding. This volume offers technicians and researchers engaged in computer and intelligent algorithm work and engineering with one source of information on novel optimization algorithms.

Exam Board: MEI Level: A-level Subject: Mathematics First Teaching: September 2017 First Exam: June 2018 An OCR endorsed textbook Encourage every student to develop a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and their applications with textbooks that draw on the well-known MEI (Mathematics in Education and Industry) series, updated and tailored to the 2017 OCR (MEI) specification and developed by subject experts and MEI. - Develop problem-solving, proof and modelling skills with plenty of questions and well-structured exercises that build skills and mathematical techniques. - Build connections between topics, using real-world contexts to help develop mathematical modelling skills, thus providing a fuller and more coherent understanding of mathematical concepts. - Prepare students for assessment with practice questions written by subject experts. - Ensure coverage of the new statistics requirements with five dedicated statistics chapters and questions around the use of large data sets. - Supports the use of technology with a variety of questions based around the use of spreadsheets, graphing software and graphing calculators. - Provide clear paths of progression that combine pure and applied maths into a coherent whole.

Fuzzy logic, which is based on the concept of fuzzy set, has enabled scientists to create models under conditions of imprecision, vagueness, or both at once. As a result, it has now found many important applications in almost all sectors of human activity, becoming a complementary feature and supporter of probability theory, which is suitable for modelling situations of uncertainty derived from randomness. Fuzzy mathematics has also significantly developed at the theoretical level, providing important insights into branches of traditional mathematics like algebra, analysis, geometry, topology, and more. With such widespread applications, fuzzy sets and logic are an important area of focus in mathematics. Advances and Applications of Fuzzy Sets and Logic studies recent theoretical advances of fuzzy sets and numbers, fuzzy systems, fuzzy logic and their generalizations, extensions, and more. This book also explores the applications of fuzzy sets and logic applied to science, technology, and everyday life to further provide research on the subject. This book is ideal for mathematicians, physicists, computer specialists, engineers, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students who are looking to learn more about fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic, and their applications.
