Riassunto

This title describes "Modelica", a modelling language that can be used to simulate both continuous and discrete behaviour, It provides the necessary background to develop Modelica models of almost any physical system. The author starts with basic differential equations from several engineering domains and describes how these equations can be used to create reusable component models. Next, he describes techniques for modelling complex non-linear behaviour, exploiting the powerful array handling features and mixing continuous and discrete behaviour. The second part of the book focuses on effective use of all the language features provided by the Modelica modelling language. This includes, among other things, discussions on maximizing the reusability of component models being developed, managing the model development process, and making models as computationally efficient as possible. The book includes a companion CD-ROM with the Modelica source code for all examples as well as an evaluation copy of Dymola. Using Dymola, readers can immediately begin to explore the dynamics of the models included with the book or to develop their own models. Nearly 100 examples of mechanical, electrical, biological, chemical, thermal and hydraulic models are included.

Recensione

`Altogether the book gives a comprehensive introduction to physical modelling and the new language Modelica and can be recommended to engineers and scientists who have to create or use models of physical systems.'
