Architecture Based Vehicle Modeling
May 23, 2017
Reviewing Architecture-Based Approaches for Vehicle Modeling All Modelon libraries are developed to adhere to the open-standard, Modelica language. We, at Modelon, thrive in this language standard for many reasons and fully leverage it in the use of templates and model architectures to rapidly create models and model variants. Modelon’s Vehicle Dynamics Library utilizes this template-based […]
Model-Based Design for Fuel Cell Systems
January 26, 2017
High fidelity multi-domain fuel cell system analysis with model based design Modelon JSME 2016 – Model Based Design for Fuel Cell Systems from Modelon Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC) are energy efficient sources that generate zero- or low-carbon heat and/or power usually at micro scale. The generated heat/ power is consumed on-site by individuals, small […]
Real-time simulation of twist beam suspension
December 5, 2016
Application of the new flexible beam model in Vehicle Dynamics Library Industrial systems incorporate often components that are by definition and functionality flexible. Think of a twist beam axle in a car, the leaf springs or frames in a truck, the wing on an airplane and so on. In multi body simulation they are usually modeled […]
Advances of zero flow simulation of air conditioning systems using Modelica
November 7, 2016
Increased simulation robustness with systematic heat transfer coefficients analysis Simulating refrigerant loops at (near) zero flow for large vapor compression cycles is challenging due to the fast dynamics in the model under those conditions, which drastically reduce the step size of the solver. This motivated a team from Modelon together with two European automotive partners […]
When fast isn’t fast enough
January 14, 2015
If you would get access to the heart of development at a top Formula 1 team, chances are high that you would find they simulate their vehicle-handling behavior using Modelica models.
