Dynamic systems - from the time-dependent process to the mathematical model to the computer experiment

Many processes in our environment are dynamic and require the use of differential equations or difference equations for corresponding mathematical modeling, the exact solution of which is generally not possible. With suitable simulation tools, however, sufficiently accurate approximate solutions can be achieved, which in particular allow an interpretation of the model and thus the influencing parameters.

Suitable topics can be found in many subjects (computer science, mathematics, natural and social sciences) and can be prepared accordingly in lessons.
