Software that complies with Generic Co-simulation

Figure Figure 5 illustrates some of the code types that can take advantage of an association with Simcenter Amesim to perform co-simulation. As we said previously, Simcenter Amesim - Simcenter Amesim co-simulations are also possible.

Table Table 2 provides examples of widely-used specialized third-party software from various fields of the simulation domain that can be coupled to Simcenter Amesim thanks to the Generic Co-simulation.

Software type	Examples
Proprietary / in-house codes	C code, Fortran code, Python, ...
Network simulation	Simulink, ...
System level simulation	Simcenter Amesim (Simcenter Amesim - Simcenter Amesim co-simulation), other 1D system software, ...
Multi-Body Systems (MBS)	LMS Virtual.lab Motion, MSC Adams, Simpack Recurdyne, ...
Finite Element Methods (FEM)	LMS Virtual.Lab, ...
Finite Element Methods (FEM)	Fluent, StarCD, CFX, Eole, IFP C3D, EXA, ...

Note

To perform co-simulation between Simcenter Amesim and a third-party tool, the third-party tool (executable or DLL file) and the Simcenter Amesim model need to be compiled for the same platform type: 32-bit or 64-bit.
