Maplesoft™ today announced a product upgrade that extends connectivity to key hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) products from National Instruments™ (NI). In addition to connectivity to NI LabVIEW™, this updated MapleSim add-on also lets users connect to the new NI VeriStand™ product. NI VeriStand™ is a ready-to-use software environment for configuring real-time testing applications, including HIL test systems. The MapleSim Connector for LabVIEW™ and NI VeriStand™ software integrates MapleSim's rich modeling environment into the popular LabVIEW™ and NI VeriStand™ real-time platforms. Engineers using LabVIEW™ or NI VeriStand™ can quickly develop and optimize complex engineering system models in the intuitive visual modeling environment of MapleSim.
At this year’s SPS/IPC/DRIVES, Weidmüller introduces an innovative generation of printed circuit board connectors for drive systems and components. OMNIMATE POWER HYBRID SV/BVF 7.62 connectors for printed circuit boards connect the energy and signal lines as well as the braided shielding of a device in only one operation, locking automatically.
Maplesoft™ today announced an add-on component library for its physical modeling and simulation product MapleSim™. The MapleSim Tire Component Library lets engineers extend their multi-domain MapleSim vehicle models with high-performance pneumatic tire components.
SOURIAU has been honoured with the 2009 AIRBUS Supplier of the Year Award in recognition of the best global performance during the suppliers’ SQAL Electrics Conference held in Toulouse on December 15, 2009.
Dereck Wright, Application Engineer at Maplesoft, has developed for a motorcycle manufacturer, a new model of battery with Maplesim. Engineers are thus able to analyse battery charge and discharge according to the way the driver uses various components of the powertrain as the starter motor, the alternator and the engine.
