Summary description: Numerical physics models with Forrester diagrams and
auto-sized plots
Announcement text:
First CTAN release of numodel-bundle (v0.2.0). numodel-bundle is a LuaLaTeX package for writing and rendering numerical models (Euler-integrated dynamical systems) directly inside LaTeX documents, aimed at physics teaching material. The bundle ships two modules: * numodel -- modelling engine: text-mode rule tables, Forrester stock-and-flow diagrams (tight/forrester/edu styles), numerical simulation in Lua, y(x)-plot integration. * numodel-plot -- PGFPlots styling layer that auto-sizes plots to a clean tick lattice; configurable axis-label formats (IEEE, ISO 80000-1). Pre-1.0 release; breaking changes still possible before 1.0.0.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/luatex/latex/numodel-bundle More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/numodel-bundle
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Erik Braun
CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs

numodel-bundle – Numerical physics models with Forrester diagrams and auto-sized plots
This bundle provides LuaLaTeX tools for writing and rendering numerical models, specifically Euler-integrated dynamical systems, directly within LaTeX documents. It is intended primarily for physics teaching materials.
The bundle consists of:
- numodel, a modelling engine that supports stock-and-flow diagrams; and
- numodelnumodel-plot, a PGFPlots styling layer that automatically sizes plots so that axis ticks fall on whole-number intervals.
