Eusebius Doedel is famous in dynamical systems as the man behind the software package AUTO. He is (almost) equally well known for his many travels and his love for good wine and good food, not to mention a good cigar!

The MEC Lab at the University of Delaware

The University of Delaware MEC lab uses modeling, experiment, and computation to teach students applied math. The lab consists of a number of faculty working in a variety of loosely connected fields of applied math. It incorporates graduate students working on research, undergraduate students taking part in a capstone course or a summer research program, and outreach programs for local high schools.
