Computer simulation is the process of mathematical modeling, performed on a computer, which is designed to predict the behavior of or the outcome of a real-world or physical system. Since they allow to check the reliability of chosen mathematical models, computer simulations have become a useful tool for the mathematical modeling of many natural systems in physics (computational physics), astrophysics, climatology, chemistry, biology and manufacturing, as well as human systems in economics, psychology, social science, health care and engineering. Simulation of a system is represented as the running of the system's model. It can be used to explore and gain new insights into new technology and to estimate the performance of systems too complex for analytical solutions.

Modelling a DC servomotor is one of the common examples used in control system textbooks and courses. Given that so many systems use DC motors, e.g. robot manipulator arms, it’s an important...
