Morphology

modeled = model (transparent) = model + ed

Formation is the regular past‑participle/adjectival use of 'model'; the digital sense is a contextual specialization but still directly derived from 'to model' (create a model).

Etymology

Modeled comes from model, which originally meant a 'small copy' or plan used before making the real thing. That's why in computers something is modeled when creators build a three‑dimensional digital 'model' to plan, show, or test the real object.
