This is a template which one might use as a basis for creating Insight Maker Relationship models. Links have default style of the blue ones in the diagram. The easiest way to get the red dashed links is to CTRL+d to duplicate them and then connect where appropriate.

Newtonian Cooling is an example of the exponential decay of a stock with the decay rate dependent on the environment.

Rich Pictures are simply pictorial representations of the relations between a number of relevant elements. The strength of rich pictures is that they're free form without any formal rules, which also tends to be the shortcoming of rich pictures.

It's relatively well understood that you can't be all things to all people. Somewhere one has to make choices. An Attractiveness Principle Systems Archetype is essentially a Limits to Growth Systems Archetype with multiple limits, all of which can not be addressed equally. See also Archetypes.

Depicts a behavior over time graph.

This Romeo and Juliet Model was adapted by Geoff McDonnell from Michael J Radzicki (1993) Dyadic processes, tempestuous relationships, and system dynamics, System Dynamic Rev. 9 (1) :79-94

Demonstrate that the same diagram is appropriate whether the interest rate is positive or negative.

Derived from a model at the Meadows institute. http://bit.ly/zI4axo.

A Growth and Underinvestment structure is simply an elaborated Limits to Growth structure where the growth inhibitor is part of another Balancing Loop with an external standard and some delay. The real nasty thing about this structure is that the two Balancing Loops form a single Reinforcing Loop which inhibits growth.

Escape behavior often results in more stress than one escapes from.

Once the strategy is developed the relationship model must evolve to represent that implementation appropriately sequenced.

Investigations into the relationships responsible for the success and failure of nations. This investigation was prompted after reading numerous references on the subject and perceiving that *Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty* by Acemoglu and Robinson seem to make a great deal of sense.

Being overly concerned about where to start often precludes one from starting. Think Nike, "Just do it!" Seldom can one ever get it right the first time, just think "Trial and learning."

An example of how to separate connections when they're overlaid.

Two goal seeking structures attempting to resolve and based on the delay one may tend to settle for less. See also Archetypes.

Use a bathtub model to investigate the manner in which inflows and outflows govern the quantity of a stock. Extend the structure to create and investigate the relationships of a goal seeking balancing loop.

The Reinforcing Loop Systems Archetype is one of the two most basic Systems Archetypes. The Balancing Loop being the other one.

The Home Heating System can be used to demonstrate how we get caught in dilemmas and become victims of ourselves.

The Button primitive enables you to write JavaScript code that controls various aspects of the model via the Insight Maker API.
