In this directory, you will find the examples from my first book on Modelica, "Introduction to Physical Modeling with Modelica". These are the models that originally accompanied the book on CD. At some point, Kluwer/Springer decided (probably as a cost saving measure) to stop distributing the CD with the book. Having been asked over the years for the source code, I've decided to put it up on GitHub. Ironically, I myself had lost track of the source code but fortunately, @dietmarw had a copy handy.

• These examples are from my first book on Modelica. If you want the examples from my more recent book Modelica by Example, you should look in this GitHub repository instead

• These examples are old and probably won't run with modern Modelica compilers. Although the Modelica Association has tried to maintain backward compatibility over the years, I suspect many of them simply will not work. But I've included so that people can at least learn from the models. (updated to Modelica 3.x in late 2016)

• These models are really unvalidated. Please don't use the models for any kind of "production" use without independently validating the results they give. I didn't have the resources to validate them when I wrote the book. Most of the simple models are probably fine, but I suspect more complicated examples like the combustion models probably have errors.

• Any scripts you find (.mos files) were original written for a very old version of Dymola. If they work at all (which seems unlikely to me), they will only work with Dymola. (The scripts have been updated and tested with Dymola 2017.) Thankfully, the scripts aren't very important.

• I can only release the models. As much as I would love to release the text of the book, I cannot because I do not have the rights for that. I was only able to retain the copyrights to the examples.

• I am releasing this under an MIT open source license so that people are basically free to do what they want with this material.

• I will accept pull requests from anybody who finds errors in these examples.
