Each team will write up a group report, which will include the following:
- The general solution to the equation (), generated through
separation of variables, partial fractions integration, and inversion.
- Choices of parameters which `best' fit the data generated in your
simulations. What were your decision criteria?
- Plots of your simulation data and the solution curve which models it.
Be sure to describe the rules you used to generate the data.
- What do you think about these approaches to disease modelling? Was
the simulation experiment realistic? How good is the mathematical model?
Each team member should assume responsibility for some of the report, but
the complete report should dovetail. Feel free to run a rough draft by me
as soon as you can, but the final version is due in one week.
