Modia3D: Modeling and Simulation of 3D-Systems in Julia
Andrea Neumayr, Martin Otter · JuliaCon Proceedings · 2020
Modia3D is an experimental Julia package to model and simulate 3D mechanical systems.Ideas from modern game engines are used to achieve a highly flexible setup and features of multi-body algorithms are used to get a rigid mathematical formulation and support, for example, of closed kinematic loops.Collision handling is performed on convex geometries with elastic response calculation.A Modia3D model is solved with a variable-step solver.This is important to combine Modia3D with the equation-based modeling system Modia in the future.
