Systems Simulation
Objectives
The student attending these classes with success should understand the following concepts:
- What is a dynamic system;
- How to approach the problem of developing a mathematical model representing the dynamic system behaviour;
- How to develop a computer simulation that replicates the behaviour of the modelled system.
