An eigenvalue approach to feedback loop dominance analysis in non-linear dynamic models
The purpose of the System Dynamics method is to study the relationship between structure and behavior in non-linear, dynamic systems. In such systems, the significance of various structural components to the behavior pattern exhibited, changes as the behavior unfolds. Changes in structural significance, in turn modifies that behavior pattern, which, in turn, feeds back to change the relative si...
متن کاملFeedback loop dominance analysis of two tree mortality models: relationship between structure and behavior.
Tree mortality is the least understood process of a tree's lifecycle. Two hypotheses on how mortality progresses in a tree are proposed in the literature: Manion's gradual decline hypothesis and Bossel's sudden death hypothesis. Bossel formulated a mechanism in his model, BAUMTOD, as the cause of sudden death phenomena. BAUMTOD, however, cannot be used to generate a causal understanding of Mani...
متن کاملGeneralised Loop Deactivation Method An Extension of Ford’s Behavioural Approach to Loop Dominance Analysis and its Applications
This paper presents progress on the conceptualisation and implementation of an extended version of Ford’s behavioural approach (Ford 1999) to feedback loop dominance analysis. The need for the extension of the original method is discussed, as are the methodological consequences of changing and implementing the method. The changed method presented here is refered to as the Generalised Loop Deact...
متن کاملA New Approach to Nonstandard Analysis
In this paper, we propose a new approach to nonstandard analysis without using the ultrafilters. This method is very simple in practice. Moreover, we construct explicitly the total order relation in the new field of the infinitesimal numbers. To illustrate the importance of this work, we suggest comparing a few applications of this approach with the former methods.
متن کاملA fuzzy approach to reliability analysis
Most of the existing approaches for fuzzy reliability analysis are based on fuzzy probability. The aim of this paper is to describe fuzzy reliability using fuzzy differential equation. The reliability of a system in real world applications is affected by some uncertain parameters. Fuzzy reliability is a way to present the reliability function uncertainly using fuzzy parameters. In the proposed...
