Abstract: In this paper, mathematically dialectical logic (MDL)-based modelling idea is discussed. One example of MDL-based erosion model, RSIMWEH, and particle system and metaball technology are integrated into a software system, M3DSSWEH, which has been designed and developed based on the platform of Oracle, Visual C++ and OpenGL to simulate the process of rainfall, overland flow and soil erosion. A case study in China Loess Plateau region shows that the accuracy of RSIMWEH is high and M3DSSWEH can efficiently represent pixel-based sediment-laden flow and soil loss over space and time
