simulations
- 1Plural of simulation.
Researchers compared the simulations against real-world measurements.
The lab's climate simulations projected rainfall trends for the next century.
Note
A regular -s plural, and the -s signals a countable use: separate runs of a model, several realistic video games, or repeated dives by players hoping to be awarded a foul. When the meaning is the activity itself, such as the process of simulating or the feigning of an appearance, the singular usually serves as a mass noun instead: simulation plays a central role in the research.
