Principles of Object-Oriented Modeling and Simulation with Modelica 3.3

Fritzson covers the Modelica language in impressive depth from the basic concepts such as cyber-physical, equation-base, object-oriented, system, model, and simulation, while also incorporating over a hundred exercises and their solutions for a tutorial, easy-to-read experience.

• The only book with complete Modelica 3.
