Truck haulage simulation animation in Python

In this article I will share a discrete-event simulation animation example in Python. More specifically a truck haul transport simulation animation for a mine, using SimPy and DesViz in Python. This example, and the DesViz module, was developed by Prof.…

Agent-based SIR model Python example

In this article I implement a SIR model in Python, using a library that I developed for agent-based modeling in Python. In other words, I use an existing framework to implement an agent-based SIR model. Introducing agent-based SIR model SIR…

Monte-carlo animation with gganimate

In this article I implement a monte-carlo animation using gganimate in R. In one of my previous posts I introduced monte-carlo simulation. Monte-carlo simulation is one of the widely applied simulation techniques in supply chain management and operations management. I…

ggplot2 animation with gganimate in R

gganimate converts any ggplot2 visualization into a ggplot2 animation. I have already published various posts containing gganimate animations. For R programmers or analysts with proficiency in R this is a very interesting package. See e.g. my blog post introducing comtradr for…

Commodity trade analysis with comtradr in R

I have already introduced various interfaces in R and Python for querying data directly from within a script. Examples covered by me inlcuded the OECD database and its interface in R, i.e. the OECD package in R. I also e.g. covered twitteR,…
