FMI Libraries of the Dynamic Simulation Environment (DSE) Core Platform provide various solutions for working with FMUs and FMI based simulation environments. Included are:
- FMI Model Compatability Library (MCL) - for loading FMUs into a DSE simulation.
- FMI ModelC FMU - for packaging a DSE simulation as an FMU.
- FMI Gateway FMU - for bridging between a remote simulation and a DSE simulation.
The DSE FMI libraries operate in Co-simulation environments and support both scalar and binary variables. Virtual networks (e.g. CAN) are implemented using Network Codecs and supported via FMI Binary variables, or in the case of FMI 2, by using encoded FMI String variables.
- Multi platform (Linux, Windows) and multi architecture (x64, x86, i386) simulation environment.
- Native FMU support for Co-simulation.
- Virtual Networks (CAN etc.) using Network Codecs and Binary Streams. Includes support for FMI 2 (via String variables).
- FMU with embedded Model Runtime and SimBus from the ModelC project.
- Packages DSE Simer simulation as an FMU.
- FMU interface supports Codec based Binary Streams (e.g. CAN Virtual Bus). Includes support for FMI 2 (via String variables).
- Bridge simulaiton environments using a Gateway FMU.
- Gateway FMU interface supports Codec based Binary Streams, including FMI 2 support.
- Manages the Co-simulation time-domain between the bridged simulation environments.
- Simple lifecycle which can be customised to support automation of simulation environments (e.g. session management).
