Epidemiological Model
Prof. Dr. Paulo Villela
This model is based on the paper by Crokidakis, Nuno. (2020). *Data analysis and modeling of the evolution of COVID-19 in Brazil*. For further details, see the full paper here.
In addition to modeling a COVID-19 transmission system in Brazil, it shows the conversion of the system of differential equations into a stock-and-flow diagram.
Jay Forrester's major contribution was to propose a new language—System Dynamics—to represent systems of differential equations, which constitutes its solid mathematical foundation, developed by Newton and Leibniz in the 17th century.
The beauty of System Dynamics lies in unifying mathematical rigor with visual clarity. It is a tool that empowers our ability to understand, communicate, and simulate the complexity of the world.
