    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.

    5-026-Evictions-ModelingScenario
    In this project, students develop two SIS models to study eviction trends in a population of non-homeowner households using an actual eviction rate. Students can calculate solutions, sketch the phase portrait, and determine long-term trends .

    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.

    6-022-CannibalismPredatorPrey-ModelingScenario
    The Lotka-Volterra model tells us that the prey and predator exhibit a shifted cyclic behavior over time. In this module, we look at modifying this prey-predator model to consider the case when there is cannibalism in the predator species.
