Tsunami Waves, Samantha Pennino
Tsunami Waves, Samantha Pennino
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
Predicting the travel time of tsunami waves is imperative to the safety and well-being of possibly affected communities since tsunami waves can happen incredibly fast. So, knowing how long an area is until a tsunami approaches dramatically helps with mitigation strategies. As an example we calculate the travel time of a tsunami wave to Somalia and Sri-Lanka that flowed an earthquake in 2004 in the Indian ocean off the coast of Sumatra. This is done by using the velocity from the shallow wave equation of the waves and piecewise integration.

The optimum flow rate of steam (H20) to the reactor for the purpose of producing hydrogen gas for sale is determined.
Trend Analysis And Completion Prediction Of The Section Project, Ronald Jones
Trend Analysis And Completion Prediction Of The Section Project, Ronald Jones
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
Creating an accurate prediction of the completion timeline of a software development project is complicated and error prone. Developers will gain a natural intuition as to how long a task should take then. However, this prediction can end up being wrong in many cases due to many factors. This paper will attempt to determine a formula which allows a more accurate prediction to be created.

Polycrystalline Silicon Solar Module Power Max, Jaynil Patel
Polycrystalline Silicon Solar Module Power Max, Jaynil Patel
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
In recent years solar energy has started to make its impact in the sunshine state. The solar panels are made up of photovoltaic cells, which convert the sun’s rays into electricity. One of the ways to improve solar panel efficiency is to increase the power output of a solar collector. The maximum power is calculated by determining the maximum power for voltage and the current. This is done by adding the maximum values for the equation for power and then using differentiation. After the maximum values are found for each hour of the day from sunset to noon, each individual …
Organic Agricultural Analysis: Efficiency Of Common Practices, Bradley Biega
Organic Agricultural Analysis: Efficiency Of Common Practices, Bradley Biega
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
To analyze the efficiency of common watering practices in an organic agriculture setting we use Sweetwater Organic Farm’s conventional methods for irrigation and land allotment as well as some algebra and calculus technique. Sweetwater’s operation is limited to their largest growing field. A mathematical model is built to determine the current efficiency of the rotary head sprinkler system. Then the efficiency of this system is compared to a new drip line system. Several variables like soil porosity, absorption rates, and areas where no plants are located, are taken into consideration. Our results show that the current irrigation in place wastes …

Geochemical Modeling Of Fractional Magma Crystallization, Luke Varner
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
Modern day geologists use many different modeling programs such as Geospatial Information Systems in addition to R (programming language) for a wide array of applications such as: projecting collected data for mapping, visualization, and trend prediction. Computational power for these modeling programs is derived from Calculus, Probability, and Statistics. The purpose of this paper is to provide a site-specific geochemical analysis of an igneous rock formation composed of two specific compositions allowing for the predictions of rock formation derived from the resultant geochemical model.
Design Of Nozzle For High-Powered Solid Rocket Propellant, Jackson Stephenson
Design Of Nozzle For High-Powered Solid Rocket Propellant, Jackson Stephenson
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
This paper presents a preliminary nozzle design for a high-altitude rocket to be built by SOAR, the Society of Aeronautics and Rocketry. The equations and methods used for analysis came from professional sources via text or informational videos. The equations in focus will look at the temperature/pressure/area-Mach relationships for isentropic flow, pressure expansions in selected materials, and finding other characteristic properties using safe chemical property assumptions using CEARUN. The equations were used under the assumption of an isentropic flow under sea level conditions. If the design and the projected results look promising, they will be implemented soon for machining and …
Comparing Two Flywheel-Piston Linkages, Anthony Sanchez
Comparing Two Flywheel-Piston Linkages, Anthony Sanchez
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
The main idea of this paper is to compare two different ways of linking a flywheel to a piston: the Scotch Yoke linkage and the Eccentric linkage. The Scotch Yoke linkage is a way to convert the linear motion of a piston into rotational motion by using a flywheel, or vice versa. The Eccentric mechanism, on the other hand, consists of a circular wheel that is fixed to a rotating axle that makes it rotate. We compare two methods by expressing both motions as functions of three variables (R, L and θ) and use these functions to …
Elapsed Time Of Vehicle Acceleration, Jensen Mctighe
Elapsed Time Of Vehicle Acceleration, Jensen Mctighe
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
Newton’s Second Law states that force is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its acceleration. More specifically, force is the mass times the instantaneous change in velocity over time of an object. By rearranging this equation, it can be determined that the time elapsed of the acceleration of an object is equal to the integral of the inverse value of the force relative to change in velocity (dv). In the context of real world application, this method can be used to calculate the time taken for a vehicle to accelerate from its minimum to maximum speed, given …

The entropy rate equation for internally reversible steady state flow process has been used to calculate the heat transfer and work in an internally reversible, polytropic, steady state flow process.
Model Function Of Women’S 1500m World Record Improvement Over Time, Annie Allmark
Model Function Of Women’S 1500m World Record Improvement Over Time, Annie Allmark
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
We give an example of simple modeling of the known sport results that can be used for athletes’ self-improvement and estimation of future achievements.
This project compares the women’s 1500-meter world record times to the time elapsed between when they were run. The function of time which describes this comparison is found through graphing the data and interpreting the graphs. Then the obtained model function is compared to the real time data. The conclusions drawn from the result include that the calculated function of time lacks in accuracy as time elapsed increases, but the model could be used to estimate …
Minimizing Container Weight, Ibrahim Alomran
Minimizing Container Weight, Ibrahim Alomran
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
Increased globalization has resulted in increased competition in the shipping industry. Since large carriers control over 70% of the total shipping industry, small carriers are left with only 30% of the market share to compete for. Ultimately, profit margins for small carriers have become very minimal. There is, therefore, need to develop a strategy that will aid in optimizing the profits of carriers. The goal of this paper is to develop a model that will help determine the minimum weight for a particular container design. The validity of the model is important in the sense that minimum container weight will …
