Real-time simulation and animation for dynamic control systems
Article Abstract:
Real-time digital simulation and graphic animation limited band-width dynamic control systems can significantly enhance the interpretation and understanding of system responses. This paper outlines an efficient technique for generating the graphics and the timing in real-time simulation and animation of the dynamic control systems using a high-speed high-performance PC-AT microcomputer. For illustration, the simulation and animation results for the adaptive computer controlled suspension of a combat vehicle and for the gun-turret stabilization and tracking control system for combat vehicle are presented.

A hierarchical approach to computer animation in simulation modeling
Article Abstract:
The trend toward animation in simulation yields interesting and exciting new techniques for simulation modeling. We discuss some of the benefits of using animation and propose a hierarchical approach to effectively use animation during all phases of the modeling process. We then illustrate the use of this hierarchical structure with a manufacturing case study involving the integration of AGV's with non-automated material handling devices.

Procedural animation blocks in discrete simulation
Article Abstract:
A way of integrating discrete-event simulation and animation is proposed using procedural animation blocks. This approach allows the use of complex animation software for displaying results of simulation and is illustrated by a simulation of freeway tolls. (Reprinted with permission of the publisher.)
