A simulation is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over time. Simulations require the use of models; the model represents the key characteristics or behaviors of the selected system or process, whereas the simulation represents the evolution of the model over time. Often, computers are used to execute the simulation.
Simulation is used in many contexts, such as simulation of technology for performance tuning or optimizing, safety engineering, testing, training, education, and video games. Simulation is also used with scientific modelling of natural systems or human systems to gain insight into their functioning, as in economics. Simulation can be used to show the eventual real effects of alternative conditions and courses of action. Simulation is also used when the real system cannot be engaged, because it may not be accessible, or it may be dangerous or unacceptable to engage, or it is being designed but not yet built, or it may simply not exist.Key issues in modeling and simulation include the acquisition of valid sources of information about the relevant selection of key characteristics and behaviors used to build the model, the use of simplifying approximations and assumptions within the model, and fidelity and validity of the simulation outcomes. Procedures and protocols for model verification and validation are an ongoing field of academic study, refinement, research and development in simulations technology or practice, particularly in the work of computer simulation.
Hi guys!
I do have a problem in ansys maxwell simulation of a generator. The moving torque (which represents electromagnetic torque) fluctuates around zero which is not correct. Induced Voltages are ok. How can I fix this problem?
Hello everone,
I have recently come across the need of a strong constant magnetic field while being limited in space. The field needs to be unidirectional and up until now was generated by two magnets (12x12x12mm N48). Then I came across Halbach arrays and their potentially stronger magnetic...

So this what I found out: One cycle takes less coordinate time, and less proper time according to the lower mirror when the clock accelerates. Proper time per one cycle does not seem to get larger with more cycles, although coordinate time per one cycle does get larger.
So what do you think...
I'm currently programming lots of physics simulators in DHTML, and my next step would be simulating a perfect gas behavior at a molecular point of view, bouncing inside of an HTML canvas.
For this reason, I came across "Maxwell-Boltzmann's law of distribution"(for speed, which I only studied...
The program begins by prompting the user to input the initial angle and speed. Once these values have been input, the program calculates the initial velocity components for the asteroid in two dimensions.

To simulate the trayectories of solar systems around a black hole (i.e. a galaxy) I have 3 classes in C++: cSystem, cBlackHole and cGalaxy. cSystem assigns initial values of position, velocity, etc to a solar system. cBlackHole does the same but just for the black hole. And cGalaxy mixes...
Hi,
First off, full disclosure as mentioned in the title, I am not an engineer, but I'm working on an engineering project without the required base knowledge.
I'm a professional pilot that also likes to fly flight simulators for fun (mostly military planes, because I'm not allowed to fly...
Hi all!

Here is the documentation for the 2DFFT:

how would I go about creating this formula on MATLAB to apply it on an image? My guess is that I need to create the equation and then multiply it to the image I need such as:
$$U = VI$$
where V is my...
Hello,
I have faced a weird problem and would really appreciate any comments. Assume a 2D model e.g. an axisymmetric model, meshed with quad, linear, and reduced integration elements.
As you now if a model contains contact, we will get "CSHEAR1" and "CSHEAR2" in outputs. Assuming that the...
Dear forumers,
I have two high performance AC feedthrough capacitors (47nF, 100A, class Y2, DC-60Hz) which I want to either combine with a general purpose EMC line filter, or build a custom one to filter the mains from of about 100khz to as high as possible (for shielding purposes).
I can see...
I don't understand how to use output from an NPT molecular dynamics simulation to compute a thermodynamic derivative.

Hello friends,
I am studying an article on impedance matching which states about matching a resistance of 52 ohms with 2k ohm. It is accomplished by adding an inductance of XL= 318 ohms in series with the 52 ohm resistor yielding a parallel equivalent of 328ohm as reactance and 2k ohm as my...
Hello PF,
I need some guide points to help me formulate a project idea on the topic of optical fibers.
Namely, the professor suggested I should look for topics on modeling of optical fibers, analysis of different optical fibers, characteristics etc. and to work in a simulator, or perform a...
There is a new paper on a MOND simulation, and the participating institutes provide some credence.

I am working on simulating the movement of small spherical objects under the influence of drag and a number of other forces that, at least for now, don't depend on the object's velocity.
Normally I would sum up all these forces, including drag, to ##F_\Sigma## and update the object's speed...

can an experiment with cosmic rays prove or disprove the hypothesis of simulation?
From the point of view of science and physics, is the simulation hypothesis true? What is the scientific refutation of this hypothesis? What do physicists say about this?

If the simulation hypothesis is really correct, then how will the touch occur (the person touches the other person)? How will the whole process go? In modern physics, it is simply the interaction of atoms.
I am trying to make a DAC R-2R ladder with CD4040B counter. Output should be a staircase but it is just a straight line in my simulation. I am probably doing something wrong as I am not that experienced with Spice so I would appreciate any help. I tried it without counter(just attached four...
Hi, guys, I am developing a simulation in Ansys Maxwell.
I set up my simulation in the "transient mode", and I would like to evaluate the eddy currents that arise in a metal Vessel.

I wanted to simulate the Ising model and it was okay until I wanted to get the fluctuations <M^2>.
In fact, first, I wanted to obtain the magnetization M :
