Compartmental System

I have used Powersim Constructor 2.51 to implement an array model of a compartmental system with flows possible between all compartments. I am sure somebody has designed a more efficient, more elegant, or in other ways better model. Can somebody point me towards work that has been done in this area?...

Discrete Compartmental System

Hi I should like to thank those that have reponded to my questions about developing array models of compartmental systems. It is obvious from their letters that it is easy to model such systems in Vensim, Stella Research and ithink, as well as in Powersims Constructor. It does not seem to be as easy...

Compartmental System

Hi Geoff Your points are well taken. I should like to discuss one of them. You ask why I am trying to build this vast model. A model of a compartmental system does not have to be very large before a diagram of a scalar model becomes very complicated. Among the examples provided by Powersim with Cons...

Judging from the table of contents your new book seems to be very interesting and the appendix on spatial dyna...
