AVS Workshop- Working with Models

AVS Science Educators Workshop Exponential Mathematical Models This set of web pages will provide graphic information about the exponential
model. The entire page set can also be used as a stand alone activity for
students. There are library and computer lab assignments,
associated with the pages. These extra activities will introduce the exponential
model as a computer based exercise. The object is to have some fun but also
to learn what models do.

A) Using Matlab to explore a very important model for Science and

Engineering applications.

1) The Exponential Model

2) Model Rules of the Road

                3) Model Behavior
                         I ) With   denominator     ( b ) held constant.
                        II ) With   numerator        ( a ) held constant.

B) Model use in a Vacuum Technology.

1) Process Example that relies on vacuum pumps
2) Natural log application of exponential model.
