IMPLEMENTATION OF CONTINUOUS-TIME DYNAMICS IN SCICOS

摘要

Scicos is a software environment for modeling and simulation of dynamical systems. The underlying formalism in Scicos allows for modeling very general dynamical systems: systems including continuous, discrete and event based behaviors. This paper presents some aspects of the simulation software, especially the features which have to do with the hybrid nature of the models. We study in particular the implementation issues concerning the efficient use of ODE (Ordinary Differential Equations) and DAE (Differential/Algebraic Equations) solvers in the simulator.
