Calculus

The term "calculation" refers to the action of calculating. Calculate involves making the necessary to predict the outcome of a previously conceived action, or know the consequences that can be derived from a previously known data operations.

The differential calculus has been developed through the years, establishing itself as a technical tool - used in scientific analysis processes containing magnitudes changing, for example, the rate of chemical reactions, atmospheric changes, social and economic development of nations, in astronomy to calculate the orbits of satellites and spacecraft , in medicine to measure cardiac output , statistics, and a wide variety of other areas.

 

The calculation can be applied in various sciences , such as: medicine, economics, engineering , architecture, etc... In Medicine, calculus, specifically the algorithm is applied to epidemiology and the logarithm, to immunology. In Economics and Management, the analysis of the economy and the administration treated frequently with changes, he calculation is for business managers and economists is a very valuable tool. The marginal analysis is perhaps the most direct application of calculus to economics and management.

 As we have seen, the differential calculus is also the method by which maxima and minima of functions are obtained, therefore, using the calculation can solve problems relating to maximize profits or minimize costs. In engineering , electronic engineering in particular , uses many differential equations as a tool for the analysis of analog or digital signals , and electronics has several matters regarding signals or signal processing .
