Modelica Libraries
A collection of free and commercial libraries.
This page contains a list of Modelica libraries (both free and commercial) - see the short overview of libraries for details.
The listed libraries are sorted by:
- Free standard conform libraries developed by the Modelica Association
- Free other libraries developed by the Modelica Association
- Free libraries provided by users of Modelica
- Free older libraries developed by the Modelica Association (deprecated)
- Commercial libraries
Note that the usage of a Modelica library requires a Modelica simulation environment, see the tools page.
The libraries from the Modelica Association and most free libraries can be used in commercial products according to The Modelica License.
