Constant Velocity Model  

This is a "first" model built by physics students just to familiarize them with the icons and functions of the systems modeling tool. The teacher essentially walks the students through the process of building this model in either Vensim or STELLA.

THE MODEL
Vensim Version STELLA Version

[Diagram Level | Equations Level | Graphs ]


Distance(t) = Distance(t - dt) + (Rate_of_Change_of_Distance) * dt
INIT Distance = 0

Rate_of_Change_of_Distance = 7
Time Specs
Standard: Range 0-12; dt = 0.25; Integration Method = Euler's
