6-029-S-TumorGrowth
04 Aug 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Allison Leigh Lewis
This modeling scenario guides a student familiar with single ordinary differential equation (ODE) models towards the development of a more complex system of two ODEs for describing the evolution of tumor growth over time. Students should have prior experience with solving ODEs using the separable...

2020-Shelton, Therese - Remote Teaching Module - Car Suspensions
28 Jul 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Therese Shelton
In this modeling activity, students examine the spring-mass-dashpot that is part of a car suspension. We model a "quarter car'', meaning a single wheel, and compare effects of different masses, spring constants, damping coefficients, and the angle at which the assembly is installed....

3-105-S-FrequencyResponse
22 Jul 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Winkel
We describe the frequency response to a second order differential equation with a driving function as the maximum steady state solution amplitude and perform some analyses in this regard.

3-034-S-CarSuspensions
14 Jul 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Therese Shelton, Brian Winkel
We examine the spring-mass-dashpot that is part of a car suspension, how the ride is related to parameter values, and the effect of changing the angle of installation. We model a "quarter car'', meaning a single wheel.

3-027-S-BobbingDropping
10 Jul 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Winkel
We present two exercises from a differential equations text in which we ask students to model (1) falling object experiencing terminal velocity and (2) bobbing block of wood in liquid. We model the motion using Newton's Second Law of Motion and Archimedes' Principle.

1-088-S-RoomTemperature
15 Jun 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Tracy Weyand
Students will analyze temperature variations in a room using Newton's Cooling Law. In this model, the only influence on the indoor temperature is the (oscillating) outdoor temperature (as we assume the heating/cooling system is broken). The main goal of this project is for students to set up...

1-136-S-MarriageAge
11 Jun 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Tracy Weyand
Students will build and analyze a model of the fraction of people who are married (for the first time) by a certain age. This model comes from a paper by Hernes and, in this project, is compared to another model used by Coale.These models are first-order ordinary differential equations (which...
