Modeling Projects
- Modeling competition between languages
The first paper describes a stochastic model for the evolution of the distribution of languages. The last 2 papers discuss the Abrams-Strogatz model of competition between languages.

- Modeling traffic flow
The first paper discusses the building of traffic jams on a single-lane road. The second paper is concerned with a nonlinear map that describes the dynamics of shuttle buses. The third article discusses a car-following model for night driving.
