We first submitted the manuscript in July 2022. In other words, we spent more time in the publication process than on the actual research!

These scenario sets are small collections of model runs representing the full diversity of the underlying model's full behavior space.

It is specifically designed to support courses on simulation methods at the Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management (TPM) at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands, including Systems Modelling 3 and Introduction to TPM Modelling. However, it can also be used by other institutions that follow a practice- oriented and skill-oriented approach to learning, while it also offers sufficient theoretical information to support autonomous learning. We choose to publish the e-book under an open access license so that SD learners from all over the world can study the material, independent of their study programmes or university access."
This is a useful guide to System Dynamics modelling - Open Access

Data visualization is challenging, especially when moving from exploratory purposes (i.e., to discover or understand the data) to explanatory purposes (i.e., communication with others).
