    2014-Bozkurt-Peker-Mathematical modelling of HIV epidemic and stability analysis
    A nonlinear mathematical model of differential equations with piecewise constant arguments is proposed. This model is analyzed by using the theory of both differential and difference equations to show the spread of HIV in a homogeneous population.

    5-015-RunnersSynchronize-ModelingScenario
    In this modeling scenario we practice finding and classifying equilibria of a one-variable differential equation. We do this in the context of a phase model which is often a simpler way of studying oscillatory phenomena.
