We discuss the qualitative behavior of a pair of nonlinear differential equations arising in the study of a wind loading problem when turbulence terms are ignored. We obtain quantitative estimates of stability boundaries and are able to identify the most dangerous excitation conditions. This deterministic study provides the basis for further work on the full stochastic differential equations resulting when turbulence terms are included.

Qualitative behavior of second order nonlinear differential equations with variable coefficients is studied. It includes properties such as positivity, number of zeroes, oscillatory behavior, boundedness and monotonicity of the solutions.

A system of two nonlinear differential equations in mathematical biology is considered. These models are originally stimulated by population models in biology when solutions are required to be non-negative, but the ordinary differential equations can be understood outside of this conventional scope of population models. The focus of this paper is on the use of linearization techniques, and Hartman Grobman theory to analyze nonlinear differential equations. We provide stability analysis and numerical solutions for these models that describe behaviors of solutions based only on the parameters used in the formulation of the systems.
