This paper discusses the need for formal criteria for the establishment of confidence in, or the ''validation'' of, system dynamics models constructed for fee-paying clients as opposed to for academic research purposes. The meaning of ''validation'' is first considered and the substantial difference

β¦ Synopsis
Many modern continuous system simulation tools provide good facilities for the efficient implementation of simulation models and for interactive experimentation using a simulation model. In most cases, however, the environment lacks some important features which can greatly assist the user in tackling efficiently some of the broader issues which arise in the model development process, such as model testing and validation. This paper reviews the problems which arise in the validation of dynamic system models and discusses the implications in terms of the type of computing environment within which model development can be carried out efficiently.

The system consists of three independent subsystems, which were built on the upper roof and the two sides of the conditioned house. Basically, during one 24 h cycle, each subsystem undergoes a regeneration process when it is exposed to sunlight and undergoes a dehumidification process when it is cov
An extensive program was conducted to develop and validate computer models for the deformation of structures in jointed rock. Both discrete element and "nite element models were investigated. The program comprised a sequence of seven calculational and experimental studies. In the "nal step, model pr
