In applied math (at least in my subfield), most papers do have a conclusion, and it's almost always a useless repetition of things already stated in the introduction (sometimes word-for-word). Please don't follow that pattern!

I try to use a conclusion only if there are general observations or discussion that I wish to include and that would not make sense in the introduction. This is rarely the case.
