Abstract
The shortest independent loop set (SILS) algorithm is a widely adopted
loop selection method in eigenvalue elasticity analysis to identify
dominant loops. However, we find that, in an individual-based model, the
SILS cannot identify the maximal independent feedback loops, which
further causes the failure of the loop analysis method. This paper
exemplifies this issue with an entire family of this model, and proposes
research problems for further study. Copyright (C) 2012 System Dynamics
