1. Abstract System Dynamic Modelling is an approach to frame and solve complex problems. It is widely used for policy design and analysis. System dynamics analysis is a part of Systems Theory which is used to study the dynamic behaviour of complex systems. The theory is based on acknowledgement of the fact that the inter-relations between the various components of a model, time delays between processes are as important to analyse the behaviour of a model as is the analysis of individual components
