Exploration Of Soldier Morale Using Multi-Mode Simulation Approach, Yongsheng Zhang, Zhengxiang Xiong Dec 2019

Exploration Of Soldier Morale Using Multi-Mode Simulation Approach, Yongsheng Zhang, Zhengxiang Xiong

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Soldier morale is a complex social construction influenced by factors at multiple levels and integrates many research domains. This research seeks to explore, model, and simulate soldier morale at multiple levels of analysis. Microcosmically Agent-Based Modeling method is used to reflect the interaction among fighters and the course of affecting morale,Macrocosmically SD method is used to reflect the influence of the tactical psychology on morale and the whole war in the counter-combat process. The developed sample case scenario pertained to US security efforts against insurgency in Afghanistan in 2007. The scenario includes representation of the patrol base operations serving …


Study On Ecological Compensation Of Three Gorges Basin Based On Evolutionary Game Theory, Guangming Yang, Yanjun Shi Dec 2019

Study On Ecological Compensation Of Three Gorges Basin Based On Evolutionary Game Theory, Guangming Yang, Yanjun Shi

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Under the background of the green development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, based on the evolutionary game theory, the game model of the upstream and downstream governments of the Three Gorges Basin and the central ecological compensation behavior are constructed to analyze the interests appeal and compensation behaviors among the three parties, so as to have a complex interest game relationship in the Yangtze River and analyze the cases of ecological compensation in the Three Gorges Basin. The research shows that without the restriction of central government, it is difficult for the upstream and downstream governments in the …


Research On Concession Period Performance Of Highway Ppp Project Based On Pavement Maintenance, Zhang Hong, Rongbei Zheng, Wenshan Qiao Jan 2019

Research On Concession Period Performance Of Highway Ppp Project Based On Pavement Maintenance, Zhang Hong, Rongbei Zheng, Wenshan Qiao

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: There are long-term dynamic and interactive relationships among highway pavement performance, user satisfaction, maintenance costs and profits, government satisfaction and related decisions in the life cycle pavement maintenance. Based on analyses of dynamic impacts and complexity of stakeholders’ behaviors around the highway pavement maintenance, a system dynamics (SD) model of the concession period performance for the highway public-private-partnership (PPP) project is established. Based on simulation experimental analysis of an example, validation and application of the proposed SD model are illustrated. Through sensitivity analysis, the influences of different stakeholders such as government, private investors, and users on the concession …


Simulation Of Influence Of Coal-Based Industry On Water Resources Bearing System, Yalin Chen, Wangsheng Gui, Qianjin Dong, Ye Chun, Haotian Wu Jan 2019

Simulation Of Influence Of Coal-Based Industry On Water Resources Bearing System, Yalin Chen, Wangsheng Gui, Qianjin Dong, Ye Chun, Haotian Wu

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The contradictory spatial distribution between China's coal resources and water resources has become the stress to sustainable development of regional ecological environment and social economy. The paper presents interactive simulation model of regional water resources bearing system based on System Dynamics; and then Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is used as an example, the dynamic process of local water bearing system was simulated under different scenarios of planning. The simulation results show that regional sustainable development of water resources would be achieved if the resources are allocated based on the market, while the gap between supply and demand of regional …


Correlation Analysis Model Of Generalized Stochastic System Dynamics, Guangqiu Huang, Qiuqin Lu Jan 2019

Correlation Analysis Model Of Generalized Stochastic System Dynamics, Guangqiu Huang, Qiuqin Lu

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: In order to solve the problem of system dynamics (SD) simulation and correlation analysis of complex system containing random possesses, the generalized stochastic Petri-net (GSPN) is expanded into the generalized stochastic function Petri-net (GSFPN), and a GSFPN-SD model is proposed by combining GSFPN and SD. The GSFPN-SD model has the following advantages: (1) the process of state evolution is more clear by firing transits; (2) it describes the autonomous dynamic evolution of complex system more realistically as system’s dynamic change is driven by events; (3) transits are fired by tokens' movement, thus the system states can conditionally or …
