Abstract
Continuous-time systems can be converted to discrete-event descriptions
using the Quantised State Systems (QSS) formalism. Hence it is possible to
simulate continuous-time systems using a discrete-event simulation tool, such
as a simulation engine based on the DEVS formalism. A new Dymola library,
ModelicaDEVS, was developed that implements the DEVS formalism. DEVS has been
shown to be efficient for the simulation of systems exhibiting frequent
switching operations, such as flyback converters. ModelicaDEVS contain a
number of basic components that can be used to carry out DEVS simulations of
physical systems. Furthermore, it is also possible – with some restrictions –
to combine the two simulation types of ModelicaDEVS and Dymola (discrete-event
and discrete-time simulation) and create hybrid models that contain
ModelicaDEVS as well as standard Dymola components.
