摘要
Through the use of specific examples, we illustrate growing areas of mathematical modelling that have arisen more recently than traditionally dominant subjects such as fluid mechanics. As high-level mathematics finds application in an expanding range of disciplines, new methods are needed to investigate the resulting models, and some of these are also illustrated. A number of recurring themes are identified, suggesting likely trends for subsequent developments.
