abstract
Relativistic heavy-ion collisions create deconfined QCD matter whose properties must be inferred from final-state observables through dynamical modeling. This contribution discusses recent progress and open issues in multistage simulations, with emphasis on the connection between bulk evolution, conserved charges, strangeness, and heavy flavor. At RHIC Beam Energy Scan energies, the breaking of longitudinal boost invariance makes charge stopping and rapidity-dependent observables essential for constraining the finite-density medium. Strange hadrons are sensitive to the local chemical environment and conserved-charge correlations, while heavy flavor probes microscopic transport and hadronization. Combining these observables within multi-sector inference frameworks provides a path toward more robust constraints on the equation of state and transport properties of QCD matter.
