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.

3-040-S-FirstPassageTime
07 Apr 2017 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Winkel
We apply the notions of dampedness to second order, linear, constant coefficient, homogeneous differential equations used to model a spring mass dashpot system and introduce the notion of first passage time with several applications.
