    3-017-StackedCoffeeFiltersFalling-ModelingScenario
    Data on free falling 2, 4, 6, and 8 stacked coffee filters is offered. Students form a model using a resistance term proportional to velocity, velocity squared, or velocity to some general power. Parameters need to be estimated and models compared.

    2018-Arden_Baxter-Modeling Public Opinion
    In this paper, we adapt the epidemiological models to model the dynamics of public opinion. Public opinion is any view prevalent among the general public. Our model considers any topic or issue in which the public has two decisive and opposing...

    2013-Greer-EtAl-Collaborative Understanding of Cyanobacteria in Lake Ecosystems
    We describe here a collaboration in which the mathematicians help collect data, the ecologists synthesize more data from model output than they can produce empirically, and the collaboration produces both mathematical approaches and field work.
