Cube Dynasim
How does a Scenario-Based Simulation Work?
Cube Dynasim provides a way to build, manage, and run an unlimited number of simulation alternatives. Instead of managing directories of redundant simulations, the entire simulation project is built and managed within one file. A scenario-based simulation system saves users huge amounts of time, effort, and money.
Every element that is placed in a Cube Dynasim simulation is assigned to a layer (similar to any CAD system). When it comes to analyzing different network scenarios, the user simply incorporates the changes into a new layer. The actual network that is simulated is simply a compilation of the layers that are appropriate for that alternative. Similarly, scenarios may be created for Vehicle Flows, Signal Timings, and Public Transit Systems.
When running a simulation alternative, the user simply mixes and matches what Network, Vehicle Flows, Signal Timings, and Public Transit System should be used for that alternative. So very quickly all the Networks in the project (Base, w/public transport Line A, w/public transport Lines A+B, …) may be tested with all of the different Flow scenarios (AM peak, PM peak, Weekend Peak, Forecast Year, …). Having a scenario-based simulation system is an extremely powerful tool that saves large amounts of time developing and maintaining the simulation alternatives.
