ABSTRACT
The widespread use of digital computers and simulation has had a profound effect on engineering and science in the current 4th Industrial Revolution mainly due to digital transformation (Kemp, 2016). With advances in big data (Zikopoulos and Eaton, 2011), cloud computing (Armbrust et al., 2009; Mell and Grance, 2011; Zhang et al., 2010), simulation-based engineering and sciences (Jain, 1990; Oden et al., 2006), computer hardware, and appropriate software, we can model and analyze complex physical systems and problems. However, efficient and accurate use of numerical results obtained from computer programs requires considerable background and advanced working knowledge to avoid blunders and the blind acceptance of computer results.
