Hi Pedro,
CityEngine can be used in any sort of project where you have to generate tons of precise 3d geometries. This does not only have to be buildings and cities. But this is used in many industries!
There are many different examples that were made with CityEngine. I recommend you search very specific on google.
Just three examples that you can search for more information:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Medieval Town ( on hills ) - I created this rule set when I was working in the CityEngine team. This example is available for download within CityEngine
- Desert City - I also created this example myself. It is also available as a full downloadable example.
- Favela - This is an example I have created in spare time with a friend and shows what you can do when you are good with CityEngine (and 3d graphics in general.)

As said, CityEngine itself does not have analysis or similation functionality, since it is a modeling application. To to 3d-simulation, you need to export to an other tool, e.g. Esri's 3D-Analyst, which obviously can do 3d analysis, including terrain and so on.
Or are you searching for something specific? Are you working on a specific project that would need specific rules?
Please let me know..
