ABSTRACT:
A system for defining the effect of forces on a model. The model is displayed and the model includes a goal axis and an equilibrium line. A plurality of qualitative effects are added to the equilibrium line. Each of the added qualitative effects apply a force to the equilibrium line. A qualitative strength and a quantitative strength are assigned to one or more of the added qualitative effects. The equilibrium line is bent in a positive and a negative direction based on an amount and a direction of force applied to the equilibrium line by each of the added qualitative effects. Also, the equilibrium line is moved in a positive or a negative direction along a goal axis based on a net effect of forces applied to the equilibrium line by the added qualitative effects. In addition, the model as effected by the added qualitative effects is saved to storage.
