Abstract: Abstract Mathematical modelling is a widely used approach in the area of engineering to perform various types of analysis. In this case, a system’s components are represented by idealized elements assumed to have representative characteristics of real-life components, and whose behaviour is possible to be described by equations. However, the degree of realism of a mathematical model very much depends on the assumptions imposed upon it.
