Climate change and extreme values analysis
Alexandre Martinez, University of California-Irvine
In this activity, we learn where to get climate data (monthly temperature maxima and monthly precipitation maxima) from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). We learn how to fit a GEV ...

Investigating Real and Ideal gases
Kristi Closser, California State University-Fresno
This activity looks at the difference between real and ideal gas laws, emphasizing the connection of the physical properties to equations and graphs. Students first analyze the real gas equation, which should be ...

Superposition and the Stern-Gerlach Experiment
Michael Groves, California State University-Fullerton
This activity is designed to explore the idea of superposition of basis functions used to describe quantum system using the Stern-Gerlach experiment and light as examples.

Introduction to Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
Michelle Isenhour, Naval Postgraduate School
This activity introduces graduate-level students to one-way (single-factor) analysis of variance (ANOVA). The students are familiar with MATLAB, but have little-to-no experience with ANOVA. The activity is ...

Simulation Klein-Nishina cross section using the Monte Carlo method
Eric Ehler, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities
Project is designed for students learning radiologic physics and radiation dosimetry in a Medical Physics graduate program. The project is designed to reinforce course concepts on the Compton Effect and associated ...

Synthesizing Marine Data Sets using MATLAB
Diane Fribance, Coastal Carolina University
Students use MATLAB to analyze an oceanographic data set collected in an estuary on a class boat trip, and put it into context using time-series data downloaded from online sources. Some basic oceanographic ...

Developing a hybrid root-finding algorithm
Melisa Hendrata, California State University-Los Angeles
In this project, students will write a code implementing the Bisection and Secant algorithms for approximating a zero of a given function within a certain error tolerance. They will then write a hybrid algorithm ...

Assignment on Runge-Kutta Methods
Dong Zhou, California State University-Los Angeles
This is a sample homework problem in a senior elective course on topics in applied mathematics. This particular problem requires the students to program forward Euler, backward Euler and an explicit 2-stage 2nd ...

Fetal Body Composition
Amir Golnabi, Montclair State University
This is a comprehensive and practical project in Calculus for life science majors, which helps students gain a deeper understanding of fundamental concepts of Calculus and enables them to apply those concepts to ...
