Join the team in Grand Rapids & Bigfork led by Mark Adams, Robert Shaner, Wayne Kruse, and Beth Waskosky as they work on defining variables, developing models, designing experiments, collecting and analyzing data, and refining their models to understand and communicate vehicle motion while braking. The project includes linear and circular motion analyses using Stella modeling, MBL/CBL data collection, Excel for results communication, and correlation with real-world data. The timeline spans from December to July, focusing on bug resolution, student involvement, staff comparison, and model metamorphosis. Huntsville, Alabama, is the final destination for project completion.

Project Goals for Students • Define dependent and independent variables • Develop a preliminary model • Design an experiment to test model • Collect and Analyze Data • Adjust Model
Project Description Describe and analyze the motion of a vehicle while braking. Part 1 - Linear Part 2 - Circular Motion
Process • Modeling using Stella • Data Collection using MBL and CBL • Analyze and Communicate Data Results using Excel • Correlating the model with real world data
Timeline • December • Team will work through project framework for the purpose of working out the bugs • Develop a model of comparison • January • Project will be given to students • February • Student projects handed in for analysis • Comparison to staff model • Metamorphosis to a new model • July • Huntsville, Alabama to finish project
