So you want to be a rocket scientist ? uh!

 

This week on the Robust Mathematical Modeling blog, I give the example of the modeling issues arising out of the thermal management design process used in spacecrafts, and yes rocket scientists are people too! they have complex models to do deal with. If you want to contribute a similar description of a specific domain in engineering or science where the three difficulties that are usually met in any real world project include: :

• The data are missing or corrupted ;
• The laws describing the phenomena are not completely known ;
• The objectives are multiple and contradictory

then please contact me I could feature you in a future blog entry.
