Self-Explanatory Simulations: Scaling Up to Large Models

چکیده

Qualitative reasoners have been hamstrung by the inability to analyze large models . This includes selfexplanatory simulators, which tightly integrate qualitative and numerical models to provide both precision and explanatory power . While they have important potential applications in training, instruction, and conceptual design, a critical step towards realizing this potential is the ability to build simulators for medium-sized systems (i .e ., on the order of ten to twenty independent parameters) . This paper describes a new method for developing self-explanatory simulators which scales up . While our method involves qualitative analysis, it does not rely on envisioning or any other form of qualitative simulation . We describe the results of an implemented system which uses this method, and analyze its limitations and potential .

A new 2D block ordering system for wavelet-based multi-resolution up-scaling

A complete and accurate analysis of the complex spatial structure of heterogeneous hydrocarbon reservoirs requires detailed geological models, i.e. fine resolution models. Due to the high computational cost of simulating such models, single resolution up-scaling techniques are commonly used to reduce the volume of the simulated models at the expense of losing the precision. Several multi-scale ...

Robust Controller Design Based-on Aerodynamic Load Simulator Identification Driven by PMSM for Hardware-in-the-Loop Simulations

Aerodynamic load simulators generate the required time varying load to test the actuator’s performance in the laboratory. Electric Load Simulator (ELS) as one of variety of the dynamic load simulators should follows the rotation of the Under Test Actuator (UTA) and applies the desired torque to UTA’s rotor at the same time. In such a situation, a very large torque is imposed to the ELS from the...

Large-eddy simulation of turbulent flow over an array of wall-mounted cubes submerged in an emulated atmospheric boundary-layer

Turbulent flow over an array of wall-mounted cubic obstacles has been numerically investigated using large-eddy simulation. The simulations have been performed using high-performance computations with local cluster systems. The array of cubes are fully submerged in a simulated deep rough-wall atmospheric boundary-layer with high turbulence intensity characteristics of environmental turbulent fl...
