...Guanying Huo; Xin Jiang; Zhiming Zheng; Deyi Xue Purpose Metamodeling is an effective method to approximate the relations between input and output parameters when significant efforts of experiments and simulations are required to collect the data to build the relations. This paper aims to develop...

...María José Cano; Eliseo Chacon-Vera; Francisco Esquembre Purpose Computer simulations improve the knowledge of physical models and are widely used in teaching and research. Key aspects are to understand their solutions and to make interactive changes to the models, observing their effects in real...
