    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.

    2017-Varanis-Mereles-Mathematical Model of a Vehicle Crash A Case Study
    The model proposed in this paper allows one to obtain the parameters of the system, and then compare them with the ones obtained experimentally to test the suitability of the model with the vehicle crash.

    1-122-SpreadPEV-ModelingScenario
    We present data on world sales data of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) and request a model on the rate of change in sales over time, leading to prediction as to number of PEVs in the future.

    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...

    2014-C_W_Groetsch-S_A_ Yost-Vertical Projection_in_a_Resisting_Medium_Revelations_on_Observations_of_Mersenne
    This article, inspired by a 17th-century woodcut, validates empirical observations of Marin Mersenne (1588–1648) on timing of vertically-launched projectiles for a general mathematical model of resistance.

    1999-F_Brauer-What_Goes_Up_Must_Come_Down
    It is natural to ask whether a particle propelled upwards takes longer to fall to earth from its maximum height than it takes to rise to this maximum height for frictional forces that are nonlinear functions of velocity.

    2008-Chernyshov-EtAl-The Problem of Modelling of Economic Dynamics in Differential Form
    The authors have tried to analyze procedures of the construction of differential equations that are employed for modeling of macroeconomic processes. The results prove to be rather unexpected.

    2007-Bellomo-De_Angelis-Delitala-Lecture Notes on Mathematical Modelling in Applied Sciences
    The Lectures Notes correspond to the first part of the course devoted to modelling issues to show how the application of models to describe real world phenomena generates mathematical problems to be solved by appropriate mathematical methods.
