Visualization of SimPy parking lot simulation results

I recently shared a Python simulation modeling example using SimPy in Python. Using SimPy, a discrete-event simulation library available in Python, I modeled a parking lot with a defined amount of slots and a defined car arrival process. In this…

SimPy parking lot simulation modeling example

I wanted to expand on my series of SimPy examples for supply chain and manufacturing simulation. In this article I show how you can model a parking lot in Python, using SimPy. SimPy is a discrete-event simulation modeling library in…

Haul truck simulation for mining industry

Discrete-event simulation offers numerous benefits for haul truck simulations. It provides a realistic representation of real-world scenarios, incorporating factors like traffic, loading/unloading, and route variability. This flexibility allows for the testing of different scenarios, leading to optimized trucking operations and…

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.…

Simulation and its use-cases in mining industry

In this article, I expand on previous articles that I have written, explaining applications of analytics and simulation in steel making and iron ore blending. I highlight current challenges in mining industry and point out common applications of simulation in…
