The Atlantis simulation shows the platform of supply and demand in a real estate/rental market. This simulation shows what causes the fluctuations in supply and demand from the need to increase occupancy rate to an influx of new residents due to growth within the local economy. These factors are direct implications of the constant changes happening to supply and demand within the Atlantis community. When occupancy is low it shows there is an increased supply of apartments available to rent. When

A piece of equipment contains four identical tubes and can function only if all the four are in working order. The lives of tubes has approximately uniform distribution from 1000 to 2000 hours. The current maintenance practice is to replace a tube when it fails. Equipments has to be shut down for 1 hr for replacing a tube‚ the cost of one tube is sh 100‚ while the shut down time

TO: Hope Weiss FROM: Nap Paholio DUE DATE: December 11‚ 2015 SUBJECT: Simulation Project Introduction The objective of this lab is to simulate the motion of an untuned vehicle’s suspension driving down an uneven surface. In terms of pitch and bounce‚ the goal of the simulation is to optimize and tune the car’s suspension to ensure an ideal ride over a bumpy surface for the driver. Experimental Method The suspension of car works with two- degrees of freedom: the pitch and bounce. The combination
