Solving large-scale Modelica models: new approaches and experimental results using OpenModelica
Willi Braun, Francesco Casella, Bernhard Bachmann · Linköping electronic conference proceedings · 2017
Modelica-based modeling and simulation is becoming increasingly important for the development of high quality engineering products.Therefore, the system size of interest in a Modelica-based simulation is continuously increasing and the traditional way of generating simulation code, e.g.involving symbolic transformations like matching, sorting, and tearing, must be adapted to this situation.This paper describes recently implemented sparse solver techniques in OpenModelica in order to efficiently compile and simulate large-scale Modelica models.A proof of concept is given by evaluating the performance of selected benchmark problems.
