Co-simulation with Abaqus and Dymola
Abaqus-Dymola co-simulation is useful when logical modeling needs to be included in a physical system simulation; for example, it can be used to couple Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) logic modeled in Dymola with an Abaqus rolling tire and brake simulation. In a typical workflow, sensor data computed in Abaqus (the physical system) are passed to Dymola (the controller), which in turn computes the needed actuation to drive the Abaqus model to a desired state. The powerful logical modeling features in Dymola cover a wide variety of engineering fields, such as electromechanics, control systems, hydraulics, penumatics, etc. This course illustrates coupling Dymola and Abaqus to develop a very versatile logical-physical modeling capability.
