About
Hey — welcome. This is a personal study site I built while taking the Modelling and Simulation course at TUM. I made it for myself, and for anyone else who’s in the same boat: curious, motivated, but without a particularly strong math background.
The standard lecture slides and textbook are good, but they move fast and assume a lot. So I started adding things that helped me actually understand what was going on — interactive visualizations you can play with, and the occasional more informal explanation that tries to build intuition before diving into the formalism. Think of it as supplementary notes that sometimes say “okay but what does this actually mean.”
It’s not a replacement for the course material. It’s more like a companion — something to open alongside it when a concept isn’t clicking.
The Course
Modelling and Simulation — Technical University of Munich (TUM) Summer Semester 2026
Instructors
Book
The course draws from a book by the same professor:
Bungartz, H.-J. et al. — Modeling and Simulation: An Application-Oriented Introduction Springer Link
Who Made This
I’m Rameş. I study at TUM and build things on the side. This site is one of those things.
A Note on Content
The explanations here follow the lecture structure closely — same sequence, often similar framing. Some definitions, theorems, and examples are reproduced or lightly adapted from the course slides and the Bungartz textbook, since there’s often no meaningful way to rephrase a formal definition. No past exams or graded assessments are included.
This site is non-commercial and intended purely as a study aid. All original course material remains the property of the respective authors and TUM.
