    1-155-CruiseControl-ModelingScenario
    In this project we illustrate the design of a proportional-integral-derivative (PID) cruise control algorithm for an automobile. PID control is one of the most common techniques in control engineering.

    1992-Emelie_Kenney-Differential equations and the AIDS epidemic
    This paper describes a lecture for Calculus II students in which the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome was used to motivate study of first-order linear differential equations and the derivative as a rate of change.

    2018-Arden_Baxter-Modeling Public Opinion
    In this paper, we adapt the epidemiological models to model the dynamics of public opinion. Public opinion is any view prevalent among the general public. Our model considers any topic or issue in which the public has two decisive and opposing...
