Modeling Scenarios (1-2 of 2)

  1. 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...

  2. 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...
