ExtendSim CP
ExtendSim, general-purpose simulation program owned by ANDRITZ Inc., is the ideal simulation platform to study the behavior of complex systems.
Worldwide leader in simulation, it has tested it in all economical fields, with limits that are never reached.
For system dynamics studies, the software is offered under the configuration ExtendSim CP (Continuous & Process).
The continuous engine in ExtendSim CP is used to model systems that need to be evaluated at regular steps of time (these models often include differential equations, feedback loops, integrates…). Engineers and researchers use it in particular in biology, ecology, control systems, economy, finance, pharmacology, mathematics, physics etc.
ExtendSim CP (Continuous & Process)
Core engire
ExtendSim CP is the core of all ExtendSim modules. Its essentials features are found in all ExtendSim products, along with specific objects for representing continuous processes.
- Graphical interface with controls, interactive dialog boxes (including during simulation)
- Built-in C compiler
- Several customizable 2D animation levels
- Unlimited number of hierarchical sub-systems
- Sensitivity analysis of a model to parameter variation
- Integrated simulation databases, for storing, managing and displaying all types of data
- Dynamic links between model parameters and data tables, and internal or external sources
- Possibility to create your own user-interface
- Monte-Carlo, State/Action functions
- Scientific libraries
Sardines and sharks, rabbits and lynx: This model illustrates a classic of population dynamics.
And electronics!
Next to generic tools for model description and user-interface settings, ExtendSim CP provide a large library of components to model electronic systems.
Since its first version ExtendSim, designed by an electronics engineer, included libraries to represent electronic components. A fascinating toolkit for engineers and electronics students alike.
Bob Diamond, ExtendSim designer, received a Technology & Engineering Emmy Award in 2013 — Know more about this.
This model shows the performance of a receiver in a digital FM transmission system in a noisy environment. Such a system with a phase-locked loop (PLL) would take weeks to prototype and test.
