    3-040-FirstPassageTime-ModelingScenario
    We apply the notions of dampedness to second order, linear, constant coefficient, homogeneous differential equations used to model a spring mass dashpot system and introduce the notion of first passage time through 0 value with several applications.

    4-035-ParEstSteadyState-ModelingScenario
    Students estimate parameters in a second order, linear, ordinary differential equations through analysis of the steady state solution. By applying a driver we can collect data in terms of the parameters and estimate these parameters

    3-090-OneSpringMass-ModelingScenario
    We lead students through building a mathematical model for a single mass (bob)-spring system that is hanging vertically. We also lead the students, using data that they collect together with their model to approximate the value of the spring...

    3-060-DataToDifferentialEquation-ModelingScenario
    Students use knowledge of second-order linear differential equations in conjunction with physical intuition of spring-mass systems to estimate the damping coefficient and spring constant from data.

    3-001-SpringMassDataAnalysis-ModelingScenario
    We offer data on position of a mass at end of spring over time where the spring mass configuration has damping due to taped flat index cards at the bottom of the mass. Modeling of a spring mass configuration and estimation of parameters are the core.

    3-010-EnergyInSpringMassSystem-ModlingScenario
    As a way to synthesize the effects of damping and forcing terms, this activity is meant to encourage students to explore how different forcing terms will change the total energy in a mass-spring system.

    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.

    In this lab students will collect data on their spring mass systems and compare their empirical models to their theoretical ones—giving them an opportunity to actually test a model against data.

    3-002-ModelsMotivatingSecondOrder-ModelingScenario
    Ordinary differential equations involve second derivatives and second derivatives appear in many contexts, chief among them are the study of forces and resulting motion. This is principally because of Newton's Second Law of Motion.
