  2. Simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation

    v. t. e. 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. 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.

  4. Electronic circuit simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_circuit_simulation

    Electronic circuit simulation uses mathematical models to replicate the behavior of an actual electronic device or circuit. Simulation software allows for modeling of circuit operation and is an invaluable analysis tool. Due to its highly accurate modeling capability, many colleges and universities use this type of software for the teaching of ...

  5. Real Time Digital Simulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Time_Digital_Simulator

    The RTS is a fully digital electromagnetic transient power system simulator that operates in real time. HYPERSIM is one of the commercial RTS available, it has been developed by Hydro-Québec and eMEGAsim has been developed by OPAL-RT Technologies Inc. which was born within Hydro-Québec. HYPERSIM is now available from OPAL-RT Technologies ...

  6. Discrete-event simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete-event_simulation

    A discrete-event simulation ( DES) models the operation of a system as a ( discrete) sequence of events in time. Each event occurs at a particular instant in time and marks a change of state in the system. [1] Between consecutive events, no change in the system is assumed to occur; thus the simulation time can directly jump to the occurrence ...

  7. Simulated reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_reality

    Simulated reality. A simulated reality is an approximation of reality created in a simulation, usually in a set of circumstances in which something is engineered to appear real when it is not. Most concepts invoking a simulated reality relate to some form of computer simulation, whether through the creation of a virtual reality that creates ...

  8. Simulation video game - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_video_game

    Simulation video games are a diverse super-category of video games, generally designed to closely simulate real world activities. [1] A simulation game attempts to copy various activities from real life in the form of a game for various purposes such as training, analysis, prediction, or entertainment. Usually there are no strictly defined ...

  9. 3D modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_modeling

    The 3D model can be physically created using 3D printing devices that form 2D layers of the model with three-dimensional material, one layer at a time. Without a 3D model, a 3D print is not possible. 3D modeling software is a class of 3D computer graphics software used to produce 3D models. Individual programs of this class are called modeling ...
