Tool speeds up testing, experimentation process

A new version of MapleSim – the Modelica-based physical modeling and simulation platform – MapleSim 6 offers even more ways for engineers to meet and exceed their system-level requirements. In MapleSim 6, support for Modelica is enhanced in many ways making it even easier for engineers to take control of their modeling and analysis.

This latest release includes a view that instantly shows the corresponding Modelica code for any subsystem or component. By looking at the code, engineers can tell precisely what their model is doing, and more easily improve its behavior. Other Modelica features include the ability to open and immediately use Modelica files inside MapleSim; the ability to easily save any MapleSim model as a Modelica file; and, through the new MapleSim Connector for FMI, the ability to export MapleSim models in a standard format that was established with the help of the Modelica Association, which is easily understood by other FMI-compliant tools.

The tool also provides the ability to run batch simulations and optimizations in parallel, taking advantage of multiple CPUs to complete the computations significantly faster. It is available in both English and Japanese. (Contact company for pricing — available now)
