This article provides feedback from using Modelica in the "System Modelling" area, involving modelling (behavioural and dynamic modelling), direct simulations, control and real-time applications. The described work was undertaken within three Europeans projects: Eurosyslib, Modelisar and Open Prod. Our aims are to attest Modelica language in an overall model of a vehicle consisting of vehicle dynamics, combustion engine, transmission, drive line, brakes and control systems. ModEngine is a complete IFPEN 1 library, resulting from our participation in those European projects. It allows the modelling of a complete engine with diesel and gasoline combustion models. It may be interfaced with control algorithms written in Simulink thanks to the new Functional Mock-up Interface specification from Modelisar project. Both versions under commercial software Dymola and free one OpenModelica are available. Feedback will concerns also problems encountered and advantages in use Dymola and OpenModelica platforms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
