What are some examples of simulations/models used for condensed matter physics?
I am going to give a few examples because it is practically impossible to exhaust the vast number of models out there in the literature. Almost every known phenomenon in condensed matter physics comes with a mathematical model.Models of magnetismIsing modelPotts modelClassical Heisenberg modelClassical XY modelModels of correlated/interacting electronsHubbard modelBose–Hubbard modelt-J modelModels of charge transferMarcus theoryModels of the Bose-Einstein condensateNonlinear Schrödinger equationGross–Pitaevskii equationModels in superconductivityGinzburg–Landau theoryBCS theoryModels in mass or charge transportBoltzmann equationVlasov equationModels of disordered latticesBethe latticeAnderson localizationModels of polaronsPolaron (big and small, heavy and light)and so on.Unless you have something more specific in mind, I'll stop here.
What are some good examples of simulation software being used for skill assessment in any organization?
Nowadays, businesses are opting for Simulation based assessments are as their preferred hiring assessment tool, Let us now understand: What are simulation based assesments, where are the job-simulation tests used pre-dominantly, why are they preferred over other assessments and which are the popular simulation based job assessment providers across industries?What are simulation based assessments?Simulation-Based Assessments give the candidate a virtual snapshot of the work they will be asked to do when they are on the job.Where the job-simulation tests are used pre-dominantly?Simulation based skill tests such asCoding simulators,Excel simulatorswhite-boarding simulatorsTyping simulaiton testsCase-study, situation based simulators etcare most popularly used as pre-hiring tests to indicate whether a candidate can perform in their job roles or at least they are capable of learning the required knowledge and skills in a reasonable amount of time.Why are simulaters used?The job-based simulation tests are considered more reliable as job performance indicatorSimulation based tests are fun to appear and give a better candidate experienceAlso helps in employer branding.Popular simulation based job assessment providers:Interview Mocha’s pre-employment assessment tests & simulatorsHackerrank coding testsHRavatarHope this helps!
What are some examples of computer simulations which model the real world?
Simulation is a powerful and widely used way to understand the world - you think you understand some phenomenon, whether it be physics (weather prediction models, climate models, models of colliding galaxies) or ecosystems, factory processes, transportation systems, or some aspect of human society. Then you build a simulation that implements your understanding, run it and see how well its behavior matches the bits of the world you are attempting to model. Use the differences between what you expect and what the model actually does to refine your understanding. Then use your model to predict what would happen if you change something, like build a dam or increase the number of electric vehicles charging from an electric grid. I recommend a classic (but expensive) book to get started, Law and Kelton, Simulation Modeling and Analysis, although I see that the most recent edition is just Law.
What are some non-examples of scienctific models?
There STILL is not a word: "non-example" Like someone else told you, a "scientific model" is a set of terms and equations used to describe a scientific phenomenon. What you seem to be asking here is a nonsensical question, since any "real-life" thing - a blade of grass, an insect (alive or dead), a footprint, a tree, a piece of fruit, a "stuffed" bird or animal, a building, a human being - could be of scientific interest and worthy of study and since they weren't really man-made simulations of a "real" thing they would be a non-model, though that term is even a senseless word.
What are the biggest examples of computer simulation gone wrong?
Its hard to say whether the simulation really went wrong -- but the communication about it did. I am referring to PA Consulting's modeling of Counterinsurgency Operations and Dynamics in Afghanistan. It was a complex System Dynamics model -- probably a very good one -- but the final graphic representation of all the interconnections was so complicated that it became an internet meme and source of late-night comedy humor. Both Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert dedicated long segments to blistering it. (YOu can see Colbert's video titled "Afghandyland" on his website, its been removed from Youtube for some reason). There was also a TED segment about it. A major NYT feature called "Death by PowerPoint" (which, not surprisingly, missed the point entirely and blamed the MS product) and innumerable blog rants.
What are some examples of agent-based simulation application in finance?
Wikipedia's article on agent-based computational economics talks a bit about financial applications.
Give three examples of real-world situations where a simulation could prove useful?
Give three examples of real-world situations where a simulation could prove useful. Describe each situation, as well as the type of information you'd expect the simulation to yield.
Sampling, experiment, simulation or census?
What technique for gathering data (sampling, experiment, simulation or census) do you think was used in each of the following studies? a) A computer program was used to model global weather patterns and to produce long-range weather forecasts for a rural agricultural region. b) A random sample of 1,000 residents of a major metropolitan area was surveyed to determine the level of support for a new sports complex among all residents of the area. c) To determine the effect of a new fertilizer on productivity of tomato plants one group of plants is treated with the new fertilizer while a second group is grown without such treatment. The number of ripe tomatoes produced by each group is counted. d) A study was done regarding the number of home runs scored by major league baseball teams playing at altitudes over 5,000 feet. Data for all major league baseball games played at this altitude was used in the study.
