I have used the loadModel(Modelica) command, but got a new error:

Code:

simulate( CustomerGeneration, stopTime=10 )

    messages = "Simulation failed for model: CustomerGeneration

    timeTotal = 0.0
end SimulationResult;

Hi,
The OpenModelica version is 1.6.0.
I was copying code from Dr. Modelica, section 13.2 "Models for Event Based Stochastic Processes ". The codes are:

Code:


package Random
import Modelica.Math;
constant Real NV_MAGICCONST=4*exp(-0.5)/sqrt(2.0);
type Seed = Integer[3];

function random "input random number generator with external storage of the seed"
  input Seed si "input random seed";
  output Real x "uniform random variate between 0 and 1";
  output Seed so "output random seed";
algorithm
  so[1] := rem((171 * si[1]),30269);
  so[2] := rem((172 * si[2]),30307);
  so[3] := rem((170 * si[3]),30323);
  // zero is a poor Seed, therfore substitute 1;
  if so[1] == 0 then
    so[1] := 1;
  end if;
  if so[2] == 0 then
    so[2] := 1;
  end if;
  if so[3] == 0 then
    so[3] := 1;
  end if;
  x := rem((so[1]/30269.0 +so[2]/30307.0 + so[3]/30323.0),1.0);
end random;

function normalvariate "normally distributed random variable"
  input Real mu "mean value";
  input Real sigma "standard deviation";
  input Seed si "input random seed";
  output Real x "gaussian random variate";
  output Seed so "output random seed";
protected
  Seed s1, s2;
  Real z, zz, u1, u2;
algorithm
  s1 := si;
  u2 := 1;
  while true loop
    (u1,s2) := random(s1);
    (u2,s1) := random(s2);
    z := NV_MAGICCONST*(u1-0.5)/u2;
    zz := z*z/4.0;
    if zz <= (- Math.log(u2)) then
      break;
    end if;
  end while;
  x := mu + z*sigma;
  so := s1;
end normalvariate;

connector discreteConnector
   discrete Boolean dcon;
end discreteConnector;

end Random;

and

Code:

model CustomerGeneration

  Random.discreteConnector dOutput;
  parameter Real mean = 0;
  parameter Real stDeviation = 1;

  discrete Real normalDelta;
  discrete Real nextCustomerArrivalTime(start=0);
  discrete Random.Seed randomSeed(start={23,87,187});

equation
  when pre(nextCustomerArrivalTime)<=time then
    (normalDelta,randomSeed)=Random.normalvariate(mean,stDeviation,pre(randomSeed));
     nextCustomerArrivalTime = pre(nextCustomerArrivalTime) + abs(normalDelta);
   end when;

   dOutput.dcon=if nextCustomerArrivalTime<>pre(nextCustomerArrivalTime) then true
   else  false;
end CustomerGeneration;

Then I use the simulate command:

Code:


simulate( CustomerGeneration, stopTime=10 )

And there is an error:

Code:

record SimulationResult

    resultFile = "",
    simulationOptions = "startTime = 0.0, stopTime = 10.0, numberOfIntervals = 500, tolerance = 1e-06, method = 'dassl', fileNamePrefix = 'CustomerGeneration', storeInTemp = false, noClean = false, options = '', outputFormat = 'plt'",
    messages = "Simulation failed for model: CustomerGeneration

Error: Error occured while flattening model CustomerGeneration
",
    timeFrontend = 0.0,
    timeBackend = 0.0,
    timeSimCode = 0.0,
    timeTemplates = 0.0,
    timeCompile = 0.0,
    timeSimulation = 0.0,
    timeTotal = 0.0
end SimulationResult;

Thank you, I'll try 1.6.0. Really appreciate your information!

Thanks! I was careless to include Rocket class.
I am using OpenModelica 1.5.0.

I'm copying the moon landing class from the ModelicaTutorialFritzson.pdf which comes with the program, page 25-26.
However, when I use the simulate function (also copied from the slides), an error occurred.
Please help.

This is the original code, I didn't modify anything:

Code:


>>class CelestialBody
constant Real g = 6.672e-11;
parameter Real radius;
parameter String name;
parameter Real mass;
end CelestialBody;

{CelestialBody}


>>class MoonLanding
parameter Real force1 = 36350;
parameter Real force2 = 1308;
protected
parameter Real thrustEndTime = 210;
parameter Real thrustDecreaseTime = 43.2;
public
Rocket apollo(name="apollo13");
CelestialBody moon(name="moon",mass=7.382e22,radius=1.738e6);
equation
apollo.thrust = if (time < thrustDecreaseTime) then force1
else if (time < thrustEndTime) then force2
else 0;
apollo.gravity=moon.g*moon.mass/(apollo.altitude+moon.radius)^2;
end MoonLanding;

{MoonLanding}

>>simulate(MoonLanding, stopTime=230)
record SimulationResult
    resultFile = "Simulation failed.
[b]Error: Error occured while flattening model MoonLanding[/b]
"
end SimulationResult;

I'm having trouble with the plot window, it used to hold when I plot multiple graphs, but now it doesn't hold, only displaying the most recent graph. I have made sure the "Hold" button is active, as the screenshot shows.:

http://img820.imageshack.us/img820/4189/omplot.png

I'm using windows version 1.5.0, OS is windows 7.
I'm using the same variable to make different plots, by modifying the code slightly to show difference.
Please tell me what is going wrong.

Thanks for your reply, I'm confused by some general things.
after I have loaded Modelica and ModelicaAdditions, I tried to use this model:

Code:


  model Place22 "Place with two input and two output transitions"
    parameter Boolean initialState = false "Initial value of state";
    Boolean state(final start = initialState) "State of place";
  protected
    Boolean newState(final start = initialState);
    annotation(Coordsys(extent = [ -100, -100;100,100], grid = [2,2], component = [20,20]), Window(x = 0.21, y = 0.03, width = 0.52, height = 0.7), Icon(Ellipse(extent = [ -100, -100;100,100], style(color = 41, fillColor = 7)), Line(points = [ -100,60; -80,60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [ -100, -60; -80, -60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [80, -60;100, -60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [82,60;102,60], style(color = 41)), Text(extent = [0,99;0,159], string = "%name")), Diagram(Ellipse(extent = [ -100, -100;100,100], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [ -100,60; -80,60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [ -100, -60; -80, -60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [80,60;100,60], style(color = 41)), Line(points = [80, -60;100, -60], style(color = 41))));
  public
    Interfaces.FirePortOut outTransition1 annotation(extent = [100, -70;120, -50]);
    Interfaces.FirePortOut outTransition2 annotation(extent = [100,70;120,50]);
    Interfaces.SetPortIn inTransition1 annotation(extent = [ -140, -80; -100, -40]);
    Interfaces.SetPortIn inTransition2 annotation(extent = [ -140,80; -100,40]);
  equation
    state = pre(newState);
    newState = inTransition1.set or inTransition2.set or state and not (outTransition1.fire or outTransition2.fire);
    inTransition1.state = state;
    inTransition2.state = inTransition1.state or inTransition1.set;
    outTransition1.state = state;
    outTransition2.state = outTransition1.state and not outTransition1.fire;
  end Place22;

I simulated it using

Code:


simulate(Place22, startTime=0,stopTime=6.0);

Then when I tried to plot it, I don't see an "x" to plot. I was going to use something like

Code:


plot(x)

But after I have tried the variables declared in the model, none of them works.
Am I simulating a wrong model? If yes, could you offer a simple working model?
Thanks.

Hello,
To study ModelicaAdditions.PetriNets, I copied and used a segment of code in PetriNets.mo, the code is:

Please tell me how to fix it. Your help is appreciated!

If you are using OMShell/OMEdit, do note that it will only display stdout from functions that are called during simulation.

Is there a way I can output all results in the loop to screen?

Hi,
I need a random number generator in OM, I found one online, the code is:

Code:


function random "Pseudo random number generator"
  input Integer seedIn[3] "Seed from last call";
  output Real x "Random number between 0 and 1";
  output Integer seedOut[3] "Modified seed for next call";
algorithm
  seedOut[1] := rem((171*seedIn[1]), 30269);
  seedOut[2] := rem((172*seedIn[2]), 30307);
  seedOut[3] := rem((170*seedIn[3]), 30323);
  // Zero is a poor seed, therefore substitute 1;
  for i in 1:3 loop
    if seedOut[i] == 0 then
       seedOut[i] := 1;
    end if;
  end for;
  x := rem((seedOut[1]/30269.0 + seedOut[2]/30307.0 + seedOut[3]/30323.0), 1.0);
end random;

Then when I try to call the random function by using another function:

Code:


function testRandom1
  input Integer seed[3];
  output Real x;
algorithm
  for i in 1:10 loop
   (x, seed) := random(seed);
   Modelica.Utilities.Streams.print("x = " + String(x,significantDigits=16) + "\n");
  end for;
end testRandom1;

When I call testRandom1 function with parameters, like this:
testRandom1({23,35,75})
There is no output to the screen. But if I remove that "Modelica.Utilities.Streams.print" statement, I get one return value, but there is no loop then.
Please help. Thanks.

Thank you very much for the information. I'll try something else.

Hi,
I'm a new comer to OpenModelica, trying a few simple things with it.
I'm now thinking of importing a file containing a series of x-y data, plot in OM (scatter plot), and use best fit to find the linear equation. Microsoft Excel can do it but it doesn't have much scientific computing capabilities.
Please give some (specific) instructions about how to do the import, and best fit.
You help is really appreciated.
