    1-047a-CondensationOptimization-ModelingScenario
    We seek to optimize a condensation process which is modeled by a simulation using the random motion of 200 particles in a 50 by 50 square in which a particle bounces off the two vertical and top walls and condenses on the bottom wall.

    1-118-SolowEconomicGrowth-ModelingScenario
    Students construct and analyze the celebrated Solow-Swan model of economic growth theory. The project is divided into three sequential parts to teach students to understand, develop, and analyze a simple nonlinear model of economic dynamics.
