modelLogisticGrowth
Extends from Interfaces.PartialCLD.SourceOrSink (Partial source or sink for causal loop diagramming).
Information
This information is part of the Business Simulation Library (BSL). Please support this work and ► donate.
Using the →LogisticGrowth component from the SourcesOrSinks package, this component allows to model a process of s-shaped growth given a constant maximum fractional growth rate rate and a constant carrying capacity (carryingCapacity). Instead of using constant parameters, it is also possible to use variable inputs (u_rate, u_K).
The process by default is active over the whole simulation run, but can be restricted to an on-off period using tc = TimingChoices.period and the parameters startTime and stopTime. Any given rate—rate or u_rate—can be modified by multiplication with an optionally given input u.
