An implementation of Dennis Meadows' PhD thesis on Dynamics of Commodity Cycles: http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/14131

This started as an implementation of the stock and flow structure for Figure 11-20 (p448) in John Sterman's Business Dynamics. I tried to complete it myself by filling in the blanks, but I couldn't completely recreate the expected behaviour, so I tracked down the original model and re-implemented it from DYNAMO into InsightMaker.

This is a model which attempts to replicate a simple reinforcing loop described by Dennis Sherwood on page 75-87 of his book 'Seeing the forest for the trees - a manager's guide to applying systems thinking.

This is not a realistic model but I just wanted to reproduce it as practice of implementing causal loop models.

The World3 model is a detailed simulation of human population growth from 1900 into the future. It includes many environmental and demographic factors.

 

Use the sliders to experiment with the initial amount of non-renewable resources to see how these affect the simulation. Does increasing the amount of non-renewable resources (which could occur through the development of better exploration technologies) improve our future? Also, experiment with the start date of a low birth-rate, environmentally focused policy.
