Maplesoft Engineering Software MapleSim 3 Enhance Understanding & Tackle Complexity of Modern Engineering Problems

Maplesoft™, the leading provider of high-performance software tools for engineering, science, and mathematics, announced several new products that will help educators, researchers, and students better understand and manage the complexity of engineering modeling and simulation problems. MapleSim™, the most advanced solution for physical modeling, combined with a collection of new toolboxes, enables fast model development, advanced analysis, and the creation of complex multi-domain models that lie at the core of modern engineering.

• MapleSim 3 – MapleSim, Maplesoft’s core physical modeling product, has a rich modeling platform which has been greatly enhanced in this release. Modeling capabilities have been extended with new component libraries for hydraulics and electrical machines. New refined solvers that handle even greater model complexity have also been added. An extensive collection of prebuilt models greatly accelerates the introduction of MapleSim in any academic setting.
• MapleSim Control Design Toolbox –The MapleSim Control Design Toolbox provides a solid set of essential control design tools that extend MapleSim’s exceptional plant modeling capabilities to support control design. This toolbox takes advantage of the symbolic approach for designing, analyzing, and testing control systems, which results in greater flexibility and accuracy. In addition, developing plants and controllers together in the MapleSim environment accelerates the development process. With this toolbox, MapleSim can be used to teach the fundamentals of control design in a way that provides deeper insight and understanding.
• MapleSim LabVIEW Connector –This toolbox integrates MapleSim's rich modeling environment into the popular LabVIEW® real-time platform from National Instruments (NI). Engineers using LabVIEW can quickly develop and optimize complex engineering system models in the intuitive visual modeling environment of MapleSim. This new toolbox joins the MapleSim Simulink® Connector (formerly known as the MapleSim Connectivity Toolbox), which provides enhanced connectivity with Simulink and Real-Time Workshop®. When combined, these products ensure that MapleSim now connects to all popular real-time platforms typically found in university labs.
