+The Van der Pol oscillator was originally proposed by the Dutch electrical
+engineer and physicist Balthasar van der Pol while he was working at
+Philips. Van der Pol found stable oscillations, which he subsequently
+called relaxation-oscillations and are now known as a type of limit cycle in
+electrical circuits employing vacuum tubes. When these circuits were driven
+near the limit cycle, they become entrained, i.e. the driving signal pulls the
+current along with it. Van der Pol and his colleague, van der Mark, reported in
+the September 1927 issue of Nature that at certain drive frequencies an
+irregular noise was deterministic chaos.
+
+The Van der Pol equation has a long history of being used in both the physical
+and biological sciences. For instance, in biology, Fitzhugh and Nagumo
+extended the equation in a planar field as a model for action potentials of
+neurons. The equation has also been utilised in seismology to model the two
+plates in a geological fault, and in studies of phonation to model the right
+and left vocal fold oscillators.

+The Bertalanffy equation is an equation that describes the rate of growth of a
+biological organism. The equation was offered by Ludwig von Bertalanffy in 1969.
+
+## Solution
+
+Integrating the equation gives:
+
+ $$ l = L \(1 - e^{-Kt}\) $$
