[ FlexSim 24.1.0 ]

Hello there.

I was wondering, what is the difference between:
1- FlexSim's user manual (2017).
2- Applied Simulation: Modeling and Analysis Using FlexSim (2011).

And which is better?

@Ehab Alazabi, all of your sources are outdated for FlexSim 2024. You find on video platforms complete starting courses of a whole week. They were recorded about two years ago. You find many tutorials in manual of FlexSim. You find demo models and related videos for them about newer features. If you want to build a course to teach FlexSim, I recommend you start with some really basic lessons about 3D models and Process Flow and then let students find their own way to gather knowledge and experiences in FlexSim.

I am both learning, and want to teach FlexSim, i would apricate it if you provide me with source links.

Thank you.

In the past I tried to prevent students to seek answers in a forum. Today this is unimportant for me, because my main focus is on a valid documentation. They have to document their logic in diagrams and texts. This can only be achieved, if they understand what they have received as solutions from users of a forum. And you can only describe really successful, if you build it for yourself and on your own.

And most important are statistical result discussions and analysis.
