  2. Simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation

    A simulation is an imitative representation of a process or system that could exist in the real world. [1] [2] [3] In this broad sense, simulation can often be used interchangeably with model. [2] Sometimes a clear distinction between the two terms is made, in which simulations require the use of models; the model represents the key ...

  3. Modeling and simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modeling_and_simulation

    Modeling and simulation ( M&S) is the use of models (e.g., physical, mathematical, behavioral, or logical representation of a system, entity, phenomenon, or process) as a basis for simulations to develop data utilized for managerial or technical decision making. [1] [2]

  4. Computer simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation

    Computer simulation is the process of mathematical modelling, performed on a computer, which is designed to predict the behaviour of, or the outcome of, a real-world or physical system. The reliability of some mathematical models can be determined by comparing their results to the real-world outcomes they aim to predict.

    The Simulator Construct is a combination of Virtual and Constructive (VC), and is composed of humans operating simulated devices in lieu of Live operational systems. The Simulator Construct consists of three components: A locally networked set of identical simulators typical of the environment (stand-alone simulators)

  6. Monte Carlo method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method

    Monte Carlo simulation: Drawing a large number of pseudo-random uniform variables from the interval [0,1] at one time, or once at many different times, and assigning values less than or equal to 0.50 as heads and greater than 0.50 as tails, is a Monte Carlo simulation of the behavior of repeatedly tossing a coin.

  7. Computational fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_fluid_dynamics

    Computational fluid dynamics ( CFD) is a branch of fluid mechanics that uses numerical analysis and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve fluid flows. Computers are used to perform the calculations required to simulate the free-stream flow of the fluid, and the interaction of the fluid ( liquids and gases) with surfaces ...

    Simulation: You’ll do a simulation session, where you’ll be positioned for treatment and undergo imaging (like a CT scan) to help plan your treatment.

  9. Simulacra and Simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulacra_and_Simulation

    Simulacra and Simulation (French: Simulacres et Simulation) is a 1981 philosophical treatise by the philosopher and cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard, in which he seeks to examine the relationships between reality, symbols, and society, in particular the significations and symbolism of culture and media involved in constructing an understanding of shared existence.
