Course detail

Simulation of Dynamic Systems

FSI-FSIAcad. year: 2026/2027

Modeling and Simulation is a discipline for developing a level of understanding of the interaction of the parts of a system, and of the system as a whole. The course is focused to continues, discrete and hybrid simulation. Modeling and simulating complex electromechanical systems.  Design of simulation experiments, model-based design, visualization and verification of simulation results.
