Play a vital role in complex engineering projects. Use the technical expertise and knowledge of computer simulation technologies to test and quantify the performance, durability, safety, functionality and profitability of engineering and operational solutions in a virtual environment.Understand the complex environment and the physical components of the technical solution which must be simulated.This process involves:•Analysing the customer’s needs and liaising with other engineers and specialists.•Focusing efforts and applying business knowledge on solving complex mathematical problems.•Utilize computer software such as Arena, Simio, Excel and Xeras to model simulated environments•Model a range of different scenarios and variables in quick succession to put the technical solution through all possible scenarios.•Develop simulations which have a graphical user interface (GUI), so that the performance of the solution can be visualizedBased on the output of the solution in the simulated environment:•Changes can be implemented and improvements be made.•Results can be utilized to give direction to the business strategy.•Comparison to actual performance can be done during periodic analysis which shall give rise to continuous improvement initiatives.•Bottleneck areas can be properly identified.
