    Unique Equilibrium Levels : Lead Levels in Blood

    For any positive values of the input I and the rate constants k, show that system (3) has a unique equilibtium solution x1=a, x2=b, x3=c where a,b and c are all positive. Building the Model ODEs Apply the Balance Law to the lead flow through the blood, tissue, and bone compartments diagrammed in Figure 61 .2 to obtain a syst

    Determine Inertia, Damping, and Stiffness

    See attached file. P228#2 Using the paradigm, What are the inertia, damping, and stiffness for the equation ? If y>0, what is the sign of the 'stiffness constant'? Does your answer help explain the runaway behavior of the solutions ?

    First Order Ordinary Differential Equations

    Problem A: Suppose that a giant HD-ready television of mass m falls from rest towards earth and its parachute opens at time t=0. when its speed is v(0)=v0 Since the TV is massive assume the drag force is proportional to the square of the velocity. Write a complete model for the velocity v(t) What is the asymptotic behavi

    Mechanical displacement - Steel ball problem

    A steel ball weighing 128 pounds (mass= 4 slugs) is suspended from a spring. This stretches the spring 128/485 feet. The ball is started in motion from the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 9 feet per second. The air resistance (in pounds) of the moving ball numerically equals 4 times its velocity (in feet p

    First order ordinary differential equation

    In order to solve differential equations, it is helpful to classify them as belonging to one or more categories. In this entry we will consider three common classes of first order ordinary differential equations (ODEs): separable, exact and linear. We will show how each class is defined.
