Advanced hydraulic system design – modelling and simulation software

screen-shot-2016-12-19-at-14-51-33

This paper describes the MapleSim Hydraulics Library from Modelon, an add-on library of advanced hydraulic components for use in MapleSim. The library lets engineers incorporate highly complex hydraulic components into multidomain models in MapleSim’s advanced system-level modelling and simulation tool. The paper presents key features and benefits of the MapleSim Hydraulics Library from Modelon and presents two examples of models developed in MapleSim using hydraulic components from the library. Using the library, engineers can: accelerate the design and development process by eliminating the need to design hydraulic components from scratch; customise and extend hydraulic components; and quickly model non-standard configurations and component designs.
