modellerend

Modellerend is a Dutch present participle derived from the verb modelleren, meaning to model. It is used as an adjective or adverb to describe activities, methods, or processes that involve creating models or simulations. As with other Dutch participles ending in -end, the form signals ongoing action or a characteristic related to modeling.

Grammatically, modellerend is formed by adding the suffix -end to the verb stem modelleren. In practice, it is used to indicate model-building or modeling activity and can appear in compound phrases that designate these activities. Depending on the noun and article, the form may appear as modellerend or as an attributive modifier in a form such as modellerende.

Modellerend is used across multiple fields. In statistics, econometrics, and data science, it refers to methods and analyses that construct mathematical or statistical models. In computer graphics and CAD, it describes the process of creating digital models of objects. In engineering or architectural contexts, it can describe workflows that produce physical or virtual models for testing and visualization.

Usage notes: while commonly understood, modellerend is a technical term most often found in formal or academic text. It is part of a broader family of terms related to modelleren, such as modellering (modeling) and model (model). Its exact usage can vary with domain-specific terminology and Norwegian-Belgian or Dutch stylistic conventions.
