Time: Monday, 08/Sep/2025, 1:30pm–4:45pm (including 30min coffee break)
We are happy to announce that there will be an extensive eFMI® tutorial at the upcoming 16th International Modelica & FMI Conference, 8-10th of September 2025, Lucerne, Switzerland.
The tutorial will demonstrate the current state-of-the-art of available eFMI® tooling. Participants will get a very high-level overview of the eFMI® workflow from acausal physics models in Modelica® down to embedded target code and a hands-on experience of it for selected Modelica® examples. The generated eFMUs and their various intermediate model representations are investigated, focusing on the non-functional quality criteria satisfied by the generated solutions, like traceability within eFMUs, MISRA C:2023 compliance of generated production code and other code quality criteria like static memory allocation and error handling.
Compared to the tutorial at the last International Modelica Conference in 2023, we will investigate more advanced examples like hybrid physics and neural network (NN) models where unknown non-linear physics are modeled using NN surrogate models well integrated with known physics (so called physics-enhanced neural ordinary differential equations, PeN-ODEs). Also the latest eFMI® improvements will be presented, like tooling to import eFMI® Production Code in MATLAB®/Simulink®, the new standard library of GALEC built-in functions and others.
Expected experience of participants:
- No previous experience with eFMI®.
- Moderate knowledge of Modelica®.
- Good understanding of physics/equation-based modeling.
- Little/moderate knowledge of the embedded domain and its challenges.
Software requirements:
- Participants have to bring their own computer with Windows 10 or 11, 64-Bit, x86.
- Required software will be provided few days before via download and at the tutorial via USB stick.
- Time limited licenses (Dymola®, Software Production Engineering) valid throughout the conference week are provided.
- To provide the download links, participants have to register for the tutorial. Please write an e-mail to Christoff.Buerger@3ds.com (Modelica Association Project eFMI® project leader) that you like to participate.
