Simulation Concepts
Introduction to Simulation
• Simulation is a technique to imitate real-world
processes or systems over time. It helps in
studying the behavior of systems without
testing in the real world.
Steps in Simulation
• 1. Define the problem
• 2. Build a model
• 3. Collect data
• 4. Run simulation
• 5. Analyze results
• 6. Make decisions
Types of Simulation with Examples
• 1. Continuous Simulation: Fluid flow,
temperature change
• 2. Discrete Event Simulation: Queue systems
• 3. Monte Carlo Simulation: Risk analysis
Continuous Simulation
• Represents systems that change continuously
over time. Example: Water flow in a pipe.
Discrete Event Simulation
• Focuses on systems where changes happen at
specific times. Example: Customers arriving at
a bank.
Monte Carlo Simulation
• Uses random sampling and statistical
modeling. Example: Predicting stock market
behavior.
Applications of Simulation
• Used in:
• - Engineering
• - Healthcare
• - Transportation
• - Business and finance
• - Military training
Why do we do Mathematical Modeling
• To represent real systems with equations.
Helps in predicting, understanding, and
improving system performance.
Example: Epidemiological Model
• Simulates spread of diseases. Example: COVID-
19 spread modeling using infection rates.
Example: Pedestrian in a Building Model
• Simulates movement of people in buildings.
Useful for safety planning and emergency
evacuation design.
