  2. System dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_dynamics

    System dynamics is a methodology and mathematical modeling technique to frame, understand, and discuss complex issues and problems. Originally developed in the 1950s to help corporate managers improve their understanding of industrial processes, SD is currently being used throughout the public and private sector for policy analysis and design.

  3. Dynamical systems theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_systems_theory

    Dynamical systems theory and chaos theory deal with the long-term qualitative behavior of dynamical systems.Here, the focus is not on finding precise solutions to the equations defining the dynamical system (which is often hopeless), but rather to answer questions like "Will the system settle down to a steady state in the long term, and if so, what are the possible steady states?", or "Does ...

    [1] [2] However, some systems are stochastic, in that random events also affect the evolution of the state variables. The study of dynamical systems is the focus of dynamical systems theory, which has applications to a wide variety of fields such as mathematics, physics, [3] [4] biology, [5] chemistry, engineering, [6] economics, [7] history ...

    After several weeks, the company comes to a major decision. It will re-release the game as free, instead focusing on selling additional content on the form in in-app purchases. The strategy works and many new users start playing the game. This has two effects: The online component of the game becomes overloaded.

  7. Structural equation modeling - Wikipedia

    Some kinds of important misspecifications cannot be detected by χ 2, [38] so any amount of ill fit beyond what might be reasonably produced by random variations warrants report and consideration. [39] [33] The χ 2 model test, possibly adjusted, [40] is the strongest available structural equation model test.

  8. Flow diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_diagram

    [2] In the second definition the meaning is limited to the representation of the physical route or flow. An example of such a diagram is the illustration of the flows in a nuclear submarine propulsion system, which shows different streams back and forth in the system. The representation of such a system can be supplemented by one or more ...

  9. Phase-field model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-field_model

    Phase-field models are usually constructed in order to reproduce a given interfacial dynamics. For instance, in solidification problems the front dynamics is given by a diffusion equation for either concentration or temperature in the bulk and some boundary conditions at the interface (a local equilibrium condition and a conservation law), [14] which constitutes the sharp interface model.
