A software package for the modeling and simulation of nonsmooth dynamical systems in C++ and in Python.
Siconos is an open-source scientific software primarily targeted at modeling and simulating nonsmooth dynamical systems:
- Mechanical systems (rigid or solid) with unilateral contact and Coulomb friction and impact (Nonsmooth mechanics, contact dynamics, multibody systems dynamics or granular materials).
- Switched Electrical Circuit such as electrical circuits with ideal and piecewise linear components: power converter, rectifier, Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) or Analog-to-Digital converter.
- Sliding mode control systems.
- Biology Gene regulatory networks.
Other applications are found in Systems and Control (hybrid systems, differential inclusions, optimal control with state constraints), Optimization (Complementarity systems and Variational inequalities), Fluid Mechanics, Computer Graphics, ...

You can also start a simple terminal to use Siconos through the command line with
docker run --rm --entrypoint /bin/bash -ti gricad-registry.univ-grenoble-alpes.fr/nonsmooth/siconos-tutorials/siconoslab-master:latestAssuming you have cloned the project into , to build and install the libraries and the python interface ::
- Create a user options file. Some templates are provided in /config_samples.
- Run
cmake -S <path-to-siconos-sources> -B build-siconos -DUSER_OPTIONS_FILE=<your-options-file>
cmake --build build-siconos -j 4 # or the number of cores available on your computer.
ctest --test-dir build-siconos # run tests, optional
cmake --install build-siconos

Each component can be used either from a low-level language like C/C++ or from Python.
Collection of low-level algorithms for solving optimization problems arising in the simulation of nonsmooth dynamical systems:
- Complementarity problems (LCP, MLCP, NCP)
- Friction-contact problems (2D or 3D)
- Second-order cone programming (SOCP)
- Primal or Dual Relay problems
- Finite dimensional Variational Inequality (AVI and VI)
Library for the modeling and simulation of nonsmooth dynamical systems.
- Dynamical systems formalism: first order systems, Lagrangian and Newton-Euler formulations
- Numerical integration techniques: Event-detecting (event-driven) and Event-Capturing (time-stepping) schemes
- Nonsmooth laws: complementarity, Relay, normal cone inclusion, Friction Contact, Newton impact, multiple impact law.
Component for the simulation of mechanical systems in interaction with their environment:
- Contact detection procedure between simple primitives (homemade) and meshes bullet3
- Contact detection between Brep representation based on oce. Open CASCADE Community Edition and on pythonOCC 3D CAD/CAM package for python
Library to add a controller to a simulation. For now almost all the implemented control schemes are based on sliding modes with an implicit discretization.
This component can be used to
- serialize almost any simulation using boost::serialization
- generate mechanical examples from HDF5 and to write HDF5 in view of visualization through vtk
