Schley, D.; Shail, R.; Gourley, S. A. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2002
Time delays are an important aspect of mathematical modelling, but often result in highly complicated equations which are difficult to treat analytically. In this paper it is shown how careful application of certain undergraduate tools such as the Method of Steps and the Principle of the Argument can yield significant results. Certain delay…
