Features: Mathematical models are bridges between mathematical theory and practical problems. Mathematical modeling is an important means and approach to applying mathematics to solve real-world problems. This book serves as a supplement to mathematical theory teaching. Through discussions on mathematical models and related issues in mathematical modeling, as well as the introduction of model examples, it aims to enhance readers' ability to apply mathematics to solve practical problems. The book is divided into three parts: Part 1 elaborates on mathematical models and related issues in mathematical modeling, as well as commonly used mathematical models and their construction methods. Part 2 provides sixteen model examples to demonstrate how mathematical models are constructed and applied in practical problems across different fields, along with their application effects. Part 3 introduces the application of mathematical models in the fundamental theoretical research of related disciplines or fields. This book can be used as a textbook for the "Mathematical Models" course in university mathematics departments, as well as for elective courses for non-mathematics graduate and undergraduate students. It can also serve as a reference for university teachers and students, as well as for various scientific and technological workers.
