    1-155-CruiseControl-ModelingScenario
    In this project we illustrate the design of a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) cruise control algorithm for an automobile. PID control is one of the most common techniques in control engineering.

    5-014-TwoSpringMass-ModelingScenario
    We ask students to build a Free Body Diagram for a vertical two mass situation in which the two masses are held fixed at the tip and at the bottom. The mass holds the springs together at the join of the two springs in between.

    6-012-RiverCrossing-ModelingScenario
    Students develop a model of a river crossing in a boat with thrust using Newton's Second Law of Motion from a Free Body Diagram they construct. The model is thence a system of one second order linear and a second order nonlinear differential...

    3-009-BallDropInWater-ModelingScenario
    We conduct an analysis of a falling ball in liquid to determine its terminal velocity and to ascertain just what radius ball for a given mass density is necessary to attain a designated terminal velocity.

    4-020-AnIEDBlast-ModelingScenario
    These three exercises offer students a chance to model with second order ordinary differential equations, how they might incorporate a spring-mass system into a larger model, and how they can use the model to determine the results of a dynamical...

    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.

    3-002-ModelsMotivatingSecondOrder-ModelingScenario
    Ordinary differential equations involve second derivatives and second derivatives appear in many contexts, chief among them are the study of forces and resulting motion. This is principally because of Newton's Second Law of Motion.

    3-006-Buoyancy-ModelingScenario
    We offer data from a physical experiment in which the depth of a container in water is measured and ask students to build a model of buoyancy based on Newton's Second Law of Motion and a Free Body Diagram. We ask students to estimate the parameters.
