Model and predict hydraulic systems behavior for transportation, and mobility, aerospace and industrial equipment industries
The Modelica based Fluid Power Library enables the modeling and simulation of hydraulic systems using oil. It addresses the needs of development engineers for designing and finds the right solutions for their hydraulics systems in a multi-disciplinary engineering approach, including control and mechanical models in the same environment. Ready-to-use components enable to rapidly design hydraulic systems and predict their different behaviors, from early concept studies through to detailed control system design and implementation.
The FluidPower library is designed to support development of hydraulic systems in any engineering domain.
Automotive and Motorsports: Braking, Power-steering, Transmission actuation
Aerospace: Braking, Landing-gear, Flap actuation systems, Aeroengine controls
Off-Highway: Transmissions, Construction / Mining machinery
Industrial: Actuation systems for infrastructure or manufacturing
