Description

We will explore a model which describes the process of entry into marriage by an individual.

In the model, rate of change in the fraction of the cohort already married will be investigated along with two governing assumptions; social pressure experienced by unmarried individual increases as the fraction of the cohort already married increases and marriageability declines as the person gets older. We will further extend and modify the model for different scenarios.

Have you ever wondered the age at which you will most likely get married? Don't tell me no, of course you did. Assuming that you are taking differential equation in your early 20s, if you are already married, you are so fast, congratulation!

If not, this tutorial may partially tell you the time you will most likely say goodbye to the single life. Well, it may not be that much helpful to find the best match for you but it may tell you "Go and enjoy your life, you have time!" or "I think this is a good time to look around..." or " You'd better hustle your bustle!". Let's walk together and explore a model which can help us out on our way to marriage.
