Description
In this webinar we will discuss the use of the FREE system dynamics software Insightmaker (https://insightmaker.com/) in a first course in Ordinary Differential Equations (with a modeling emphasis). We will begin by exploring the equivalence of systems of ODE and stock-flow models through examples.
Through this exploration we will note ways in which stock-flow modeling can enhance the understanding of models, as well as establish some graphical ODE idioms (what this means will be explained). Time permitting, we will also discuss parsing Insightmaker files into Python (for more advanced analysis) and the underlying abstract mathematics of stock-flow diagrams (category theory).
