Mathematical modelling in sustainability

We aim to familiarize participants with complex sustainability challenges in industry, finance, society, and the environment. Emphasizing the need for a broad understanding of mathematical modeling, it fosters analytical and mathematical thinking to enable students to address and solve sustainability problems in their professional roles. Additionally, the course offers a chance for students to specialize in applied mathematics, focusing on modeling and simulating mathematical models in complex systems and sustainability.

This module is a concise adaptation of a course available at the following link:  https://canvas.kth.se/courses/37862

Here are lecture notes for the course above:

1. Introduction, Download Introduction, 2. Climate modelling, Download Climate modelling, 3. Ecosystem Download Ecosystem, 4. Pollution Download Pollution, 5. Energy modes Download Energy modes

Other topics (without notes) include:

i) Sustainability in Financial Sector (general term with more exact suggestions).

ii) Socioeconomics, Socioecology.

I am also preparing lecture notes for Feb. 16, that will be shared with you here. It will be a concise version of the above lectures. For the 15-min introduction lecture I had on Jan 16, you can see Notes. Download Notes.
