A Software Interface Between System Dynamics and Agent-Based Simulations
نویسندگان
چکیده
A software-based integration of agent-based modeling and system dynamics is presented. More precisely, it is described how RePast and Vensim can be coupled using standard procedure calls. In an example from supply chain management, agents modeled with RePast in an agent-based simulation context are provided with system dynamics models as internal schemata, which are built with Vensim. The prototypical application shows both, the technical simplicity of combining agent-based and system dynamics simulations when using RePast and Vensim, and the potential of a combination of the two approaches.

تحلیل دینامیک مبدل سمت شبکه و طراحی کنترلکنندۀ خازن لینک DC در توربین-ژنراتورهای بادی با ژنراتور القایی دوسو تغذیه (DFIG)
This paper deals with the analysis of the grid side converter (GSC) dynamics and dc-link controller design in doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind turbines. In this way, at first the current controller design for the GSC is proposed, and then power flow direction in rotor-side and grid-side converters at different slips is determined. Next, the dc link dynamics is extracted based on...
متن کاملCT-Based Brachytherapy Treatment Planning using Monte Carlo Simulation Aided by an Interface Software
Introduction: In brachytherapy, radioactive sources are placed close to the tumor, therefore, small changes in their positions can cause large changes in the dose distribution. This emphasizes the need for computerized treatment planning. The usual method for treatment planning of cervix brachytherapy uses conventional radiographs in the Manchester system. Nowadays, because of their advantages ...
متن کاملMultiphase flow and tromp curve simulation of dense medium cyclones using Computational Fluid Dynamics
Dense Medium Cyclone is a high capacity device that is widely used in coal preparation. It is simple in design but the swirling turbulent flow, the presence of medium and coal with different density and size fraction and the presence of the air-core make the flow pattern in DMCs complex. In this article the flow pattern simulation of DMC is performed with computational fluid dynamics and Fluent...

We have developed a framework for using software agent technology for linking distributed simulations and other data resources. The Agent-Based Environment for Linking Simulations (ABELS) framework uses software agents to coordinate distributed simulations, communicate data efficiently between simulations, and retrieve data from other sources such as sensors and datasets. ABELS allows simulatio...
