Recommendations

Enjoyment and interest in simulation in general. The basic handling of programming languages should not be a hurdle. Enjoyment in the implementation of physical equations with parameters, variables and constants. Enjoyment of digitization and virtual engineering in particular.

Teaching Content

• This module is designed to provide students with the theoretical and practical aspects of object-theoretic equation-based modeling.
• This module also provides a definition of the digital twin and its aspects of the management shell.
  • In this context, a classification of simulation models in the I4.0 VWS takes place.
• Both system simulation in the Open Modelica Editor (OME) and co-simulation with Functional Mockup Units (FMU) will be covered.
• Students create a new model library of a mechatronic system in a semester-long project (teams of 3-4 students).
• The module provides an overview of modern system simulation methods based on bidirectional flow and potential modeling.
• Beyond theoretical and practical modeling, the module imparts the knowledge about practice-relevant modeling levels or depths.
• Furthermore, quality standards for simulation models with focus on the engineering of plants/systems are discussed.
