Modelling for AUSROC Ill

This paper discusses the general principles behind the use of computer modelling in the design of dynamic systems. Particular reference is made to a 6-DOF computer model developed for AUSROC III using MATRIXx/SystemBuild{TM} software. The model played a dual role in the AUSROC III project: as a sub-system design and analysis tool, and as an overall system performance evaluator. Essentially, the model is the chief designer's big picture of the project.
