    5-090-SolidParticleErosion-ModelingScenario
    By applying Newton's second law, and making a collection of reasonable assumptions, students will derive a system of differential equations that model the path of a rigid particle as it gouges material from a more ductile surface.

    1-130-AspirinAbsorption-ModelingScenario
    We model the amount of aspirin absorbed by the human body at a constant rate. This is a ``zero-order reaction'' in the language of pharmacokinetics -- the study of how drugs move in the body.

    1-131-CaffeineElimination-ModelingScenario
    We model the concentration of caffeine eliminated from the human body at a rate proportional to the concentration. This is a ``first-order reaction'' in the language of pharmacokinetics -- the study of how drugs move in the body.

    5-020-ParacetamolAbsorption-ModelingScenario
    We offer drug absorption data on paracetamol, an analgesic pain reliever, for two different sets of patients, vegetarian and non-vegetarian. Students build a two compartment model for plasma and non-plasma (tissue) compartments of human patients.

    5-040-TunedMassDamper-Part-I-Modeling Scenario
    We offer an opportunity to build mathematical models to mitigate dangerous displacements in structures using structural improvements called Tuned Mass Dampers. We model the motion of the original structure as a spring-mass-dashpot system.
