Funny story with most of my family members in it. A real laugh to read say some of my friends.Read near your toilet as you might wet yourself laughing.
If you can model something, then you understand it, know what is going on inside it and, within constraints, can control it, stabilise it or protect it from the effects of disturbances
I have... More > modelled a wide variety of processes using the methods described including :Metallurgical, Thermal, Shaping, Chemical, Food and Bio processes
Some models were used to decide on how to improve process operation, some to drive estimators of important but unmeasurable internal process variables, some were used for prediction, some were built into on-line control systems.
Many powerful tools and packages are now available to help the would-be modeller. However, the underlying ideas of how to set about modelling are basic and unchanging.
This book, originally published in 1983, describes those underlying techniques in as simple a way as possible; its content was honed by interactive teaching to many years of first year graduate students< Less

This executive briefing is an introduction to the technology of computer simulation for middle and senior management in the logistics, distribution and warehousing industries. It outlines... More > capabilities and potentials at several levels and may also be of use to sales and marketing personnel.
Simulation technology is defined and explained. Hardware and software requirements are reviewed and a brief history of simulation is presented along with examples of past successful use. Then, with reference to the supply chain and the warehousing industry, possible uses of simulation are detailed in several modalities (purposes) and at several levels.
The benefits of simulation as an analytical tool are reviewed, followed by a section that describes industrial lessons learned from failed simulation projects and the requirements for success that emerge from those lessons. The briefing concludes with a short foray into the possible future of the technology.< Less

Surface-to-air missiles are designed to defend a land area against an aerial or theater ballistic missile threat. The size of the defended area and the capabilities of the threat have great... More > influence on the speed, maneuverability, and lethality requirements of the missile system.
Simulation of the missile flight path can provide valuable information about these requirements. A missile flight simulation is a computational tool that calculates the flight of a missile from launch until it engages the target. The simulation is based on mathematical models of the missile, target and environment. This book provides instruction for the preparation of these mathematical models to simulate the flight of a surface-to-air missile.
This book may be used as a reference or as a textbook, although it is devoid of exercises. However, the reader is encourages to perform the simulation of Charter 12 using MATLAB® and SimulinkTM, or a programming language such as FORTRAN (see Chapter 10).< Less
