    2004-Mark_McCartney-Using_second-order_ordinary_differential_equations_to_model_traffic_flow
    A simple mathematical model for how vehicles follow each other along a stretch of road is presented. The resulting linear second-order differential equation with constant coefficients is solved and interpreted.

    1-027-StochasticProcesses-ModelingScenario
    We build the infinite set of first order differential equations for modeling a stochastic process, the so-called birth and death equations. We will only need to use integrating factor solution strategy or DSolve in Mathematica for success.
