ROLLERI, José Luis. ¿Qué son los modelos físicos?. Valenciana [online]. 2013, vol.6, n.11, pp.271-288. ISSN 2007-2538.

In this paper we analyze the main intended concepts of model in order to underline the idealized and abstract character of physical models, that generally is overpass in the relevant philosophical literature from diverse positions on the scientific knowledge, such as instrumen-talism and pragmatism, which however has important implications on philosophical problems such as that of scientific realism. From a conceptualistic position we hold that the de-idealized models are the vehicles to conceptualized physical systems from the perspective of a theory.
