Abstract

Modeling and simulation (M&S) has revolutionized the way modern engineered products are designed, tested and evaluated. Yet modeling and simulation is much less frequently applied in the study of natural biological and active matter systems. Two of the greatest challenges in applying M&S approaches to natural biological systems are (1) difficulty in specifying a model, and developing a simulation from it, and (2) tuning and optimizing parameters. Here we address the first challenge directly, and develop a software library that can lead to progress in the second.
