Present participle of simulate.

Note
One spelling does two jobs. After a form of be it builds the progressive (the lab is simulating a storm); at the head of a phrase it is a gerund, a noun naming the activity (simulating the launch helped). Simulate drops its final e before -ing. The "feigned" meaning belonged to simulate as an adjective, now obsolete; this form comes from the verb of modeling and replicating.
