    2007-I-Liang_Chern-Mathematical Modeling and Differential Equations
    In this course, I will mainly focus on, but not limited to, two important classes of mathematical models by ordinary differential equations: • population dynamics in biology • dynamics in classical mechanics.

    6-068-VisualizingPredator-PreyCycles
    In this modeling scenario, we propose a gentle introduction to limit cycles using nullcline analysis and a spreadsheet graphical approach via the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. We will be offering three predator-prey models, each more complex...

    2016-Rob_deBoer-Population Dynamics  A Graphical Approach
    This book is an introduction into modeling population dynamics in ecology. Because there are several good textbooks on this subject, the book needs a novel ecological niche to justify its existence.

    Our analysis shows that historical datasets can yield powerful insights into the transmission dynamics of reemerging disease agents with which we have limited contemporary experience to guide quantitative modeling and inference.

    2006-Michelle_LeMasurier-Nonstandard Topics for Student Presentations in Differential Equations
    An interesting and effective way to showcase the wide variety of fields to which differential equations can be applied is to have students give short oral presentations on a specific application.

    1-009-Bifurcation-TechniqueNarrative
    We lead students to investigate first-order differential equations that contain unknown parameters. Students discover what happens to the qualitative behavior of solutions to these equations as these parameters vary.
