Physically based modeling is widely used within the fields of computer graphics and mechanical engineering for complex systems that are difficult to analyze using conventional mechanics theory.
This Guide to Dynamic Simulations of Rigid Bodies and Particle Systems presents a comprehensive introduction to the techniques needed to produce realistic simulations and animations of particle and rigid-body systems. The book focuses on both the theoretical and practical aspects of developing and implementing physically based dynamic-simulation engines. Opening with an overview of the...

This classroom-texted textbook/reference presents a set of useful modeling techniques, describing how these can be combined into a powerful framework for the analysis and design of business systems. These techniques follow an interactive modeling and simulation (IMS) approach, enabling the modeling and simulation of separate parts of the system at different levels of abstraction, and the composition of these parts in a flexible crosscutting manner that preserves the behavior of the individual parts. Topics and features: presents a detailed introduction to the foundations of IMS for business...

An interdisciplinary reference and guide, this book introduces modeling methodologies and models as a starting point for deriving effective solution techniques, and presents case studies that demonstrate how heuristic and analytical approaches may be used to solve large and complex problems. The appendices have expanded descriptions and examples.

Systems of systems are at the root of this century's global challenges of economy, climate, and energy. Building and testing such systems within a virtual reality is the only workable alternative when direct real-world experimentation is potentially dangerous, costly or unethical.
This Guide to Modeling and Simulation of Systems of Systems demonstrates how virtual build and test can be supported by the Discrete Event Systems Specification (DEVS) simulation modeling formalism, and the System Entity Structure (SES) simulation model ontology. The book examines a wide variety of...
