Risk & uncertainty
From its inception, Analytica was designed to analyze risk and uncertainty — unlike spreadsheet applications which require special add-ins. Analytica’s fully integrated features for sensitivity analysis, scenario analysis and Monte Carlo simulation make it remarkably simple to treat risk and uncertainty in your models. Here are some examples of how organizations are using these methods.
Exploring the future of the automobile
Can alternative technologies such as biofuels, natural gas, electric vehicles, or hydrogen fuel cells reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependency on oil?
NASA space shuttle mission: reducing time & costs
NASA applied Analytica’s risk-analysis features to help ground-operations reduce the time and cost to ready the space shuttle for the next mission.
How much water do we have?
The supply of water has been a community debate. Analytica was used to model water supply and demand, contributing to the St. Helena’s approval of new water usage policies.
Assessing the Clean Air Act
How effective was the Clean Air Act at improving air quality and reducing acid rain? The NAPAP developed an integrated environmental assessment model to help answer such questions.
Do Inuit hunters threaten whale populations?
Population variance, whale fertility and mortality in the absence of hunting are considered in this Analytica model to evaluate the risk to whale populations.
Can California afford its ambitious climate policies?
The State of California uses the PATHWAYS Analytica model to show that it can reach its ambitious target of 50% reduction in GHG emissions by 2030 at reasonable cost.
