    2013-Boscolo-Stellato-Undergraduate study of harmonic and parametric motion of a simple spring-mass system from motion waveforms
    In this paper, we describe a laboratory exercise that caters to beginning students while giving those with more background an opportunity to explore more complex aspects of the motion.

    9-014-TurkeyCook-ModelingScenario
    The goal of this project is to investigate several models for the cooking time for a turkey based on weight, test these models with data obtained from heating curves for turkeys of various weights, and develop a new model to fit this data.
