Haley Yaple serves as Chair of the Mathematics Department and Associate Professor of Mathematics at Carthage College. She holds a Ph.D. in applied mathematics from Northwestern University, where her research focused on modeling religious shift and ferromagnetism using differential equations. Her undergraduate degrees in mathematics and mechanical engineering from Trinity College reflect her dual interests in technical fields and liberal arts. Yaple’s work bridges social dynamics, physics, and engineering through mathematical frameworks.
- Education: Ph.D. Applied Mathematics (Northwestern University), B.S. Mathematics & Mechanical Engineering (Trinity College)
Her research interests span applied mathematics, social dynamics, and interdisciplinary modeling. Notable projects include studying religious non-affiliation trends and ferromagnetic material behavior using analogous mathematical approaches. She also explores fluid dynamics in industrial contexts and biological systems like Physarum polycephalum.
Publications highlight her multidisciplinary approach, analyzing both social systems and physical phenomena through mathematical lenses. Her work demonstrates how similar equations can model diverse phenomena, from cultural shifts to material science challenges.
Outside academia, Yaple engages in music, dance, curling, and collecting vintage mathematics texts. No specific awards or grants are listed in the provided materials.
