  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. Systems modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_modeling

    In business and IT development the term "systems modeling" has multiple meanings. It can relate to: the use of model to conceptualize and construct systems; the interdisciplinary study of the use of these models

  4. 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 ...

  5. Orbit (dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbit_(dynamics)

    In mathematics, specifically in the study of dynamical systems, an orbit is a collection of points related by the evolution function of the dynamical system. It can be understood as the subset of phase space covered by the trajectory of the dynamical system under a particular set of initial conditions, as the system evolves.

  6. Computer simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_simulation

    A model consists of the equations used to capture the behavior of a system. By contrast, computer simulation is the actual running of the program that perform algorithms which solve those equations, often in an approximate manner.

  7. Dynamical system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamical_system

    The concept of a dynamical system has its origins in Newtonian mechanics.There, as in other natural sciences and engineering disciplines, the evolution rule of dynamical systems is an implicit relation that gives the state of the system for only a short time into the future.

  8. Surrogate model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrogate_model

    A surrogate model is an engineering method used when an outcome of interest cannot be easily measured or computed, so an approximate mathematical model of the outcome is used instead.
