We've been working on something called SimuForge—it’s a SaaS tool that uses the Modelica language for modeling and simulation. We're aiming to make it useful across fields like automotive, aerospace, and various mechanical, electrical, and thermal processes.
What’s SimuForge?
It’s a platform where you can:
Drag and drop to build and simulate models using an existing library of more than one thousand simple elements (like tanks, pumps, resistors, triggers, etc.).
Collaborate with teammates in real time.
Integrate it with other tools you already use. Our first use case—and the reason for this project—is integration with Digital Twins to answer "What if" questions: taking real inputs to determine what would happen if certain parameters were changed, and modeling system behavior over time intervals.
Under the hood, we use Modelica—a non-proprietary, object-oriented language specifically designed for component-oriented modeling of complex systems. It’s widely recognized for its ability to describe physical systems and their interactions, from a single component to complex systems spanning multiple engineering domains.
We’d Love Some Feedback:
Could you use something like this in your work?
Are there specific features you’d wish for in a tool like this?
Any thoughts or suggestions you have would be great!
The website is currently just a landing page, and the platform has basic functionality (code editor and simulation runner). We plan to make it open and free for limited use cases in the next couple of weeks after we polish it off.
