There are several software tools available for modeling combat and social phenomena. With more emphasis being shifted to the study of Irregular Warfare from Traditional Warfare it is important to evaluate current combat models to see if they can effectively model the complex situations that are faced by today’s war fighters. This study evaluates three simulation software products: Map Aware Non...

Existing Simulation and Animation (S&A) software tools are typically platform dependent and do not particularly lend themselves to cooperative work within either the Internet or an Intranet. This paper describes: • Basic approaches toward achieving Web compliance for S&A software; and • Specific components for potential use in an open, platform independent simulation environment for the Interne...

Energy simulation software tools are an important support used for building designers to reduce the cost of energy in buildings. The energy simulation software allow to determinate with accuracy some variables that can support designers to take decisions about the best measures to apply for any building to built or already existent. There are several energy simulation software tools in the mark...

Drivability calibration of a vehicle’s engine and transmission controller largely defines the unique character of the vehicle. Today, calibration is mostly performed on the road and on test rigs. Recent advances regarding virtualisation of ECUs made it possible to establish Software-in-the-Loop simulation as a development tool as well. To this end, Daimler AG and QTronic GmbH jointly conducted ...

This paper shows the capabilities of applying the three-dimensional finite element method (3D-FEM) for designing complex-shaped substation connectors to operate at 765 kVRMS AC. To check this methodology, it was analyzed the feasibility of upgrading a 400 kVRMS substation connector to operate at 765 kVRMS. However, both experimental and simulation results conducted according to the ANSI/NEMA CC...

This paper focuses on how notions of inference can be fostered in middle school through the use of carefully designed tasks, open-ended software simulation tools, and social activity that focuses on making data-based arguments. We analyzed interactions between two sixth-grade students who used software tools to formulate and evaluate inferences during a 12-day instructional program that utilize...

RÉSUMÉ. Cet article décrit une méthodologie de rétroconversion de citations permettant de retrouver les champs composants à partir de leur texte reconnu par OCR. Cette méthodologie se base à la fois sur la régularité et la redondance de certains champs ainsi que sur la localisation de parties de discours spécifiques à certains champs. Le résultat de la rétroconversion sert à des études de bibli...

This article presents the CODYRUN software developped by University of La Réunion. It is a multizone thermal software, with detailled airflow and humidity transfer calculations. One of its specific aspects is that it constitutes a research tool, a design tool used by the lab and professionnals and also a teaching tool. After a presentation of the multiple model aspect, some details of the tree ...

We developed a software tool for pre-operative simulation and planning, and intra-operative guidance, of minimally invasive tumor ablation, including radiofrequency-, laserand cryo-therapy. This tool provides a preand intra-operative optimization of the treatment plan, in order to avoid dangerous probe trajectories, undertreatment of the tumor, and excessive ablation of healthy tissues. The sim...
