  • Chapter
  • 194 Accesses

Abstract

Modelica is a language for convenient, component oriented modeling of physical systems. In this article, an overview of the language, available libraries, the Dymola simulator and some industrial applications is given. Additionally, a comparison of Modelica with VHDL-AMS is presented.
