    1-138-InnerEarDrugDelivery-ModelingScenario
    Students examine local drug delivery to the cochlea. The delivery system is modeled as a liquid mixing problem. Students formulate the differential equation, and solve the equation using separation of variables or integrating factor.

    2011-Carl_Leinbach-Beyond Newton's law of cooling - estimation of time since death
    The paper offers an excellent history of temperature-based methods and then proceeds to demonstrate these with some data. Here the history is rich and will support student investigation as well as faculty development.

    2018-Chris McCarthy-Newtons Law of Cooling
    You have hot water (initial temperature ) in a container, say a cup or glass. The temperature in the room is cooler, say a constant degrees Celsius. Come up with a differential equation that models the water's temperature.
