New to Twin Activate? Learn the basics here.

Twin Activate software is a solution for creating and simulating multi-disciplinary, dynamic system models. The software is especially useful for signal-processing and controller design that requires both continuous-time and discrete-time components.

Key Functions

  • Modeling and simulating continuous and discrete dynamical systems.
  • Constructing hierarchical, parameterized models.
  • Combining standard components with physical components from Modelica.
  • Electronic Circuit modeling with SPICE.
  • Co-simulation with multi-body dynamics and electromagnetics.
  • Model exchange and co-simulation through the Functional Mock-Up interface.
  • Compiling models into executable code.
