    1991-Carmine_Chicone-Ordinary Differential Equations with Applications
    This is a complete text for a graduate level course. Hence there is much theory, but there is a chapter on applications with some sophisticated approaches and high level modeling of motion.

    2016-Simon_Malham-Differential_Equations_and_Linear_Algebra
    This is a nice set of notes on which a course can be based. There is ample material on first and second order, linear systems, and Laplace Transform methods for setting up and solving differential equations.

    2017-Adolfo_Rumbos-Differential Equations and modeling
    The study of any phenomenon in the physical or biological sciences, in which continuity and differentiability assumptions about the quantities in question can be made, invariably leads to a differential equation, or a system of differential...

    2020-TeachingModule-GeometricBehaviorOfLinearSysteModeling
    This module concentrates on the geometric properties of a system of 2 linear, homogeneous first order differential equations in 2 variables as dictated by the corresponding eigenvalues. Students should be familiar with using eigenvalues.

    1-039-StochasticPopModels-ModelingScenario
    We develop strategies for creating a population model using some simple probabilistic assumptions. These assumptions lead to a system of differential equations for the probability that a system is in state (or population size) n at time t.

    3-031-SpringCost-ModelingScenario
    We assume students are familiar with overdamping and underdamping of a spring-mass-dashpot system. Students will apply this knowledge to model the interplay between spring constant, tolerance, and cost.
