“仿真技术”已被许多国家列为国家关键技术之一,而倍加重视。从广义来说,仿真技术是无处不在的。例如儿童玩具,利用声、光、电和传统工艺相结合,可以做成能够乱真的小狗、小猫和汽车、坦克等;各种工艺品的仿真程度同样令人佩服;电影艺术的仿真布景;军事上的实弹演习;食品也有仿真技术在起作用,人造海蜇皮为实真假难分;…这类“仿真”在生活中不胜枚举。本文将工程技术上的仿真在发展高技术中的重要地位做一简要介绍。 “Simulation technology” has been listed as one of the country’s key technologies by many countries, and has been given more attention. In a broad sense, simulation technology is ubiquitous. For example, children’s toys, using sound, light, electricity and traditional craftsmanship, can be made into real dogs, kittens, cars, tanks, etc.; the degree of simulation of various crafts is equally admirable; the simulation of film art; Military live-fire exercises; foods also have simulation technology at work; artificial jellyfish are true and false; ... such “simulations” are numerous in life. This article will briefly introduce the important position of engineering technology simulation in the development of high technology.
