Dymola is a multi-domain modelling and simulation tool that supports the Modelica modelling language.  A wide range of model libraries are available including engines, transmissions, drivelines, vehicle dynamics, electric drives, control systems, hydraulics, air-conditioning amongst many others.  Dymola has full support for the Modelica modelling language providing the user with access to the model equations and the freedom to add their own models.

Dymola uses a component orientated modelling method that provides the engineer with a convenient way to create the schematic of a multi-domain system.  This schematic is then transformed in to efficient simulation using symbolic manipulation.  Using symbolic manipulation it is possible to transform the schematic in to efficient real-time simulation code for use on HIL systems.

Optimisation and model calibration features are available for Dymola that support multiple parameter, multiple case optimization.  It is also possible to export Dymola models for use in Simulink or for export to other computers as a pre-compiled model or as c-code.

The VehicleDynamics library that is available for Dymola comes in many different versions to suit different needs and applications.  There are versions for passenger cars with low-degree of freedom, table based suspension models and high fidelity, multibody suspension models.

The library includes a variety of ready-to-use suspension templates and tyre models that simply require parametisation.  Many standard test manouevres are included alongside the freedom to define your own road and driver models.
