Simulation Models

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-025626

Represent the development of a solution by incremental steps through the model domain. Simulations are often used to obtain solutions for models that are too complex to be solved analytically. For most situations, where a differential equation is being approximated, the simulation model will use finite time step (or spatial step) to "simulate" changes in state variables over time (or space).
