    2007-I-Liang_Chern-Mathematical Modeling and Differential Equations
    In this course, I will mainly focus on, but not limited to, two important classes of mathematical models by ordinary differential equations: • population dynamics in biology • dynamics in classical mechanics.

    2014-XM-Huang-Ordinary Differential Equation Model and its Application in the Prediction Control of Population
    In this paper, we study two kinds of ordinary differential equation models, i.e., Malthus model and Logistic model, and discuss their applications in the prediction control of population.

    6-068-VisualizingPredator-PreyCycles
    In this modeling scenario, we propose a gentle introduction to limit cycles using nullcline analysis and a spreadsheet graphical approach via the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method. We will be offering three predator-prey models, each more complex...

    This book is an introduction into modeling population dynamics in ecology. Because there are several good textbooks on this subject, the book needs a novel ecological niche to justify its existence.

    2018-Eduardo-Sontag-Lecture_Notes_on_Mathematical_Systems_Biology
    I am often asked if it is OK to use these notes in courses at other universities. The answer is “of course!” though I strongly suggest that a link to my website be provided, so that students can always access the current version.
