The Exponential Growth Archetype is a reinforcing structure which promotes exponential growth. This is one of the two foundation archetypes. The other being the goal seeking structure. See also Archetypes.
Initial causal loop diagram for the influences leading to the acceptance of Systems Thinking. This is the evolving version. You can compare this with IM-1948, which is the original, if you wish.
This is a definition of the Systems Thinking Interactive Learning Environment (STILE) development process which was used to create Beyond Connecting the Dots (BCtD).
The city of Bergen has a goal of becoming fossil-free in 2030. How do we get there? Some weeks ago, local experts from different domains came together and developed a causal loop diagram (CLD). This will form the skeleton for the modelling hackathon.
The limits to growth structure is based on the basic growth structure. And, as should be obvious, nothing grows forever as growth requires resources. Those required resources become a limits to growth.
When we address situations we tend to do so with myopic limited awareness of the real nature of the situation and our actions tend to produce unintended consequences which make the situation worse or create other problems that have to be dealt with by us or others.

We often set out to solve a problem or accomplish some particular result and things seem to go as planned. As time progresses it seems that progress becomes more and more difficult, if not impossible, and things may actually become worse than when we started. When this happens it is typically a Fixes that Fail structure that's operating. See also Archetypes.
A spatially aware, agent based model of disease spread. There are three classes of people: susceptible (healthy), infected (sick and infectious), and recovered (healthy and temporarily immune).
This is the sample model used as a demo for enfolding and unfolding a model. This is what we had to do before the Storytelling feature was developed. Save this one for posterity!
