2-001-Text-S-NumericalMethodsComparisons
18 Aug 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Swarn Singh
It is not always possible to solve a differential equation analytically.This material makes an effort to teach the basics of numerical methods for first order differential equations by following graphical and numerical approaches. Here we also discuss the order of accuracy of the methods and...

1-054-S-GrowthInFarmland
14 Aug 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Richard Spindler
An enriching project developing a model from data with missing temporal information is described. Students fit functions to the data that leads to the creation of a differential equations model, which they then are required to analyze in multiple ways. Different fits, modeling approaches, and...

1-081-S-TumorGrowth
09 Jun 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Randy Boucher, Ryan Edmund Miller
Students will transform, solve, and interpret a tumor growth scenario using non-linear differential equation models. Two population growth models (Gompertz and logistic) are applied to model tumor growth. Students use technology to solve the Gompertz model and answer a series of questions...

6-070-S-BeerBubbles
24 Apr 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Michael Karls
The goal of this project is to set up and numerically solve a first-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) system of three equations in three unknowns that models beer bubbles that form at the bottom of a glass and rise to the top. The system solution is then used to verify...
