The use of computer simulations in different scientific activities has increased considerably in the last few years. However, philosophical reflection on computer simulations is rather scarce, partly due to the relative ...

Much of the current philosophical interest in computer simulations stems from their extended presence in scientific practice. This interest has centered on studies of the experimental character of computer simulations and, ...

This paper deals with the usage of interactive simulations tools to serve as an oriented design tool for the lectures and laboratory experiments in the power electronics courses. A dynamic and interactive visualization of ...

This artice presents an exhaustive analysis of the mechanical behavior of a steel tube during its sinking drawing. The methodology consisted in three stages, respectively, devoted to tensile testing, tube drawing in ...

The development of various heuristics has enabled optimization in simulation environments. Nevertheless, this research area remains underexplored, primarily with respect to the time required for convergence of these ...
