Personal weblog of Ted Pavlic. Includes lots of MATLAB and LaTeX (computer typesetting) tips along with commentary on all things engineering and some things not. An endless effort to keep it on the simplex.
Lower-level undergraduate course introducing computer simulation for quantitative modeling of sustainability challenges, with a particular focus on system dynamics modeling (stock-and-flow diagrams, causal loop diagrams, related tools, and dynamical system modeling approaches).
Lower-level undergraduate course introducing systems thinking, resilience thinking, complex systems, and network science. Provides conceptual frameworks for analyzing and explaining counterintuitive behaviors from systems related to sustainability problems.
Undergraduate course introducing the application of economic frameworks to sustainability problems. Students learn basic mathematical models for understanding the economic foundations of why people make decisions that lead to unsustainable resource allocation and how economic thinking can be used to provide appropriate incentives to help ensure sustainability in decentralized markets.
Upper-level undergraduate course introducing stochastic simulation, with a particular focus on discrete-event system simulation for industrial applications.
