Application of dynamic systems modeling approach to rank optimal urban waste management strategies using SWOT method by Hamid Shahbandarzadeh, Mohammad Hossein Kabgani

“…The reasons for using the dynamic systems approach for this research can also be enumerated as follows: 1) an appropriate approach in determining and predicting the effects of factors affecting waste production, 2) helping to understand the relationships between variables and examining the behaviour and structure of systems, incredibly complex systems (creating a conceptual model), 3) a flexible approach with the ability to analyze quantitatively and qualitatively, 4) the ability to review the system in the future under different scenarios and policies of decision makers and 5) dynamic system models are considered as simulation models; therefore, they have the advantages of using the simulation method over the analysis methods. …”
