    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.

    1981-Geoffrey_Berresford-Differential Equations and Root Cellars
    This is a classic module from UMAP in which the heat equation in one dimension is fully developed by using the standard technique of measuring the heat flow in and out of a small element of mass and equating them at equilibrium.

    1-058-WaterClocks-ModelingScenario
    We apply Torricelli's Law to the task of building a water clock in which the height of the water in a container falls at a constant rate when the container has a hole in the bottom to let the water flow out.

    1-057-FiguringFluidFlow-ModelingScenario
    We propose three differential equations models for the height of a column of falling water as the water exits a small bore hole at the bottom of the cylinder and ask students to determine which model is the best of the three.

    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.

    2000-deOlivera-Delfino-Costa-Leite-Pinhole Water Flow From Cylindrical Bottles
    The water flowing from the first bottle feeds the second one located below it. The same concepts of mass and energy conservation now lead to a non-trivial differential equation for the lowest bottle dynamics.
