    1991-Carmine_Chicone-Ordinary Differential Equations with Applications
    This is a complete text for a graduate level course. Hence there is much theory, but there is a chapter on applications with some sophisticated approaches and high level modeling of motion.

    2018-Kovacs-Insperger-Retarded neutral and advanced differential equation models for balancing using an accelerometer
    It is shown that slight modeling differences lead to significant qualitative change in the behavior of the system, which is demonstrated by means of the stability diagrams for the different models.
