Developing Physical Models
  • MapleSim supports a wide variety of domains and includes fully validated Modelica components for modeling mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, thermal, and signal-flow systems.
  • Model diagrams map directly to your physical systems, so they are easy to construct and validate.
  • Systems equations are automatically generated from the system diagram, and can be viewed, manipulated, and analyzed.
  • MapleSim lets you rapidly create custom components from first principles, by allowing you to specify the mathematical equations that define the dynamic behavior of your system.
