Biomass Web: Accra's Mini Model on Exports by Kai Neumann

Just a small model to facilitate a discussion during a workshop in Ghana. The thesis was that seasonality would lead to less exports of crops and the counter argument was that it might lead to a necessity to export if domestic demand isn't able to consume all the crops. However, if irrigation leads to less seasonality it might be possible to export more. Tricky, isn't it?

df 193 Verkehr: Modalitätsknoten – Maximum versus Optimum by Dirk Fabricius

Das Modell zeigt für  Inter- bzw. Multimodalitätsknoteneigenschaften (s. Modell df 191), dass eine Maximierung von Strecken, Stell- und Parkplätzen etc. nicht zu einer stetigen Verbesserung der Knoten führt, sondern mehr davon (Mehr-Desselben; s. Watzlawick) zum einen längere Wege bedeutet, was die Knotenqualität herabsetzt, zum anderen mehr Verkehrsteilnehmer anzieht, was dazu über kurz oder lang dazu führt, dass freie Sitz-, Park- und Stellplätze, verfügbare Sharing-Fahrzeuge (Autos und Fahrräder wenig...

System Archetype Balancing process with delay by Franc Grimm

In the model "system achetypes" (https://imodeler.info/ro?key=AWmcYVpCac1lRUJaRxmTz7Q) we have explained different system archetypes, which are describing common patterns of behavior in all kind of organizations or systems. For this, we have used simple examples - mainly based on the work of Peter Senge (Literature: Peter Senge et. al., The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook, 1994). Peter Senge documented the most common set of patterns of behavior in organizations that have the tendency of reoccurring. These pa...

Cheap meat trap by Kai Neumann

they want it because others want it ... so others just need to stop wanting it (whether we refer to developed countries or wealthy opinion leaders). btw: the inspiration to this model came from the club party of our sailing club where we get a huge buffet with all sorts of meat and fish and only minor vegetarian alternatives (not as a main dish). Asking the organizers the reaction was, that even the wealthy people of the club expect to eat tasty meat for as little money as possible and that they wouldn't...
