  2. Computer simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation

    It was a simulation of 12 hard spheres using a Monte Carlo algorithm. Computer simulation is often used as an adjunct to, or substitute for, modeling systems for which simple closed form analytic solutions are not possible. There are many types of computer simulations; their common feature is the attempt to generate a sample of representative ...

  3. Modeling and simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modeling_and_simulation

    [1] [2] In the computer application of modeling and simulation a computer is used to build a mathematical model which contains key parameters of the physical model. The mathematical model represents the physical model in virtual form, and conditions are applied that set up the experiment of interest.

  4. Simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation

    Human-in-the-loop simulation of outer space Visualization of a direct numerical simulation model. Historically, simulations used in different fields developed largely independently, but 20th-century studies of systems theory and cybernetics combined with spreading use of computers across all those fields have led to some unification and a more systematic view of the concept.

  5. Computer experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_experiment

    Computer experiments have been employed with many purposes in mind. Some of those include: Uncertainty quantification: Characterize the uncertainty present in a computer simulation arising from unknowns during the computer simulation's construction. Inverse problems: Discover the underlying properties of the system from the physical data.

  6. Simulation modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_modeling

    Simulation modeling follows a process much like this: Use a 2D or 3D CAD tool to develop a virtual model, also known as a digital prototype, to represent a design. Generate a 2D or 3D mesh for analysis calculations. Automatic algorithms can create finite element meshes, or users can create structured meshes to maintain control over element quality.

  7. Dynamic simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_simulation

    The first applications of computer simulations for dynamic systems was in the aerospace industry. [5] Commercial uses of dynamic simulation are many and range from nuclear power, steam turbines, 6 degrees of freedom vehicle modeling, electric motors, econometric models, biological systems, robot arms, mass-spring-damper systems, hydraulic systems, and drug dose migration through the human body ...

  8. List of computer simulation software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_computer...

    Dymola - modeling and simulation software based on the Modelica language. DYNAMO - historically important language used for system dynamics modelling. Ecolego - a simulation software tool for creating dynamic models and performing deterministic and probabilistic simulations. EcosimPro - continuous and discrete modelling and simulation software.

  9. System-level simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System-level_simulation

    System-level simulation has some other characteristics, that it shares with CPS simulation in general: SLS involves multi-physics models (thermo-fluidic, mechanical, electrical, etc.) SLS is frequently cross-disciplinary, [1] i.e. it is frequently the result of a collaboration between people with different expertises
