- Third Party Resource Title: Solving a Simple Drug Delivery Model Using Analytical, Linear Algebra, and Numeric Approaches
- Third Party Resource Link: https://serc.carleton.edu/teaching_computation/workshop_2019/activities/231091.html
- Description: The delivery of orally ingested drugs, such as pills and capsules, can be roughly modeled as a system of first-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs). This type of "drug-delivery model" can be solved several different ways, including traditional analytical (e.g. "pencil-and-paper") methods, linear-algebra-based methods, and numerical approximation techniques. This activity details three techniques for using MATLAB to solve both homogeneous and non-homogeneous systems of linear differential equations.
