Rapid prototyping of automated manufacturing systems by software-in-the-loop simulation

RT-SIL performance analysis of synchrophasor-and-active load-based power system damping controllers

“…In order to analyze the performance of the developed active load control algorithms, Real-Time Software-in-the-Loop (RT-SIL) simulation [12] of the test case system was performed using Opal-RT's eMEGAsim Real-Time Simulator. When using the RT-SIL approach, both the controller and the test case are simulated in real-time in the same simulator but using three different computation cores; two for the test system model and a separate one for the load control.…”

“…This approach of testing the control algorithm is called Real-Time Software-inthe-Loop (RT-SIL) which is a technique used in model-based control design [12]. RT-SIL is verification and validation technique used towards the development of a hardware prototype.…”

Advanced UAV Hybrid Simulator Model Based-on Dynamic Real Weather Data

“…Towards fulfilling this, the hybrid active architecture (which integrates the VB.NET and MATLAB in the same simulation loop [1]) is used as a development architecture. The proposed simulator relies on Software in-the-Loop (SiL) simulation [17], Discrete Event Simulation (DES) [18], Model in-the-Loop (MiL) simulation [19], human in-the loop simulation [20], and HiL simulation [7]. Moreover, a comprehensive aircraft mathematical model for the De Havilland DHC-2 "Beaver" is utilized to represent the UAV dynamics.…”
