George Fox University’s Department of Mathematics and Applied Science invites you to attend presentations of the third annual SIMIODE Challenge in Differential Equation Modeling at 1 p.m. today (Saturday) in EHS 102. Admission is free.

Teams from George Fox and area universities will present their best mathematical interpretation and analysis of a question chosen from the following:

• Could conflict between patrilineal clans in early human history explain the sudden drop in Y-chromosome diversity in the Neolithic era?
• How would you design a rotating pendulum to dramatically initiate a cascade of dominoes for a museum exhibit?
• How could climate change affect animal populations, such as the pine snake, whose male/female ratio at the embryonic stage has been shown to vary with temperature?

SIMIODE is a community of educators who promote active engagement in STEM education. Supporting documentation on the research behind these questions can be found here.
