Computer simulation studies and the scientific method.
The scientific method is the formal procedure for all acceptable scientific endeavors. With this methodology, there is a continual interaction between theory, in the form of an hypothesis, and objective, experimental analysis. There is a new step in the scientific method that involves the use of computer models and simulation studies. When computer models are incorporated into hypothesis formul...
متن کاملStudying scientific discovery by computer simulation.
BACON is a computer program that simulates some of the important processes of scientific discovery. When provided with data about temperatures before and after two substances are brought into contact, the program infers the concept of specific heat and arrives at Black's law of temperature equilibrium. Comparison of BACON's discovery methods with historical records of Black's work casts light o...
متن کاملComputer Simulation of Ammonia Cold Shot Converter
A mathematical model is developed and tested with plant data for the ammonia cold shot converter of Razi Petrochemical Complex. The model is based on a material and energy balance in a differential element of beds and is subjected to the assumptions of uniform distribution of temperature and composition through a general cross section and negligible mass and heat transfer in axial direction. Th...
متن کاملComparative study of computer simulation softwares
One of the methods for analyzing systems is simulation. Network simulation is a technique that models the behavior of the network by performing transaction calculations between different network entities and using mathematical formulas and taking observations from network products. A network simulator is a piece of software or hardware that predicts the behavior of a computer network without a ...
متن کاملComputer-Enhanced Scientific Creativity
This report describes a project to develop computerized tool to enhance a specific, but very important, kind of scientific creativity. Significant scientific breakthroughs are often enabled by a reconceptualization of some problem or class of phenomena. This reconceptualization may involve novel metaphors and analogies, especially visual, which allow the problem to be seen in a new light, and m...
