Simulation modeling
open-in-new
<p>Simulation modeling is the process of creating and analyzing a <a href="/facts/Digital_prototyping/72RFqzV6">digital prototype</a> of a physical model to predict its performance in the real world. <a href="/facts/Simulation/Q4QJV1oI">Simulation</a> <a href="/facts/Scientific_model/aNyvIyUQ">modeling</a> is used to help designers and engineers understand whether, under what conditions, and in which ways a part could fail and what loads it can withstand. Simulation modeling can also help to predict fluid flow and heat transfer patterns. It analyses the approximate working conditions by applying the simulation software. </p>
