Python based modular simulation & postprocessing kickass toolbox

Project description

PyMoskito

Status of continuous integration Link to PyPi Documentation Status DOI index 49145679

PyMoskito stands for Python based modular simulation & postprocessing kickass toolbox and is Free software (GPLv3)

PyMoskito is targeted at students and researchers working in control engineering. It takes care of all structure related programming a let’s you focus on the important things in life: control design It features a modular control loop structure that already contains most of the needed blocks a control engineer needs. Basically you implement your systems dynamics as well as a fancy control law and you are ready to go. On top PyMoskito also contains a GUI which let’s you easily fine-tune the parameters of your simulation.

Go ahead and give it a try!

PyMoskito at work:

The main application simulating the Ball and Beam system:

./docs/pictures/pm_2.png

The postprocessing application:

./docs/pictures/pm_3.png

Another example a Double Pendulum:

./docs/pictures/pm_4.png

with custom prostprocessors:

./docs/pictures/pm_5.png

Still here? So PyMoskito features:

  • quick setup due to lightweight dependencies

  • modular control loop structure allowing easy configuration

  • easy integration of own system models through open interface

  • automatic simulation of simulation regimes (i.e. for parameter ranges)

  • export of simulation results for dedicated post processing

  • VTK based 3D visualization interface

  • playback functions for 3D visualization

  • ready-to-go graphs for all simulation signals

History

0.2.1 (2017-09-07)

  • Fixed issue when installing via pip

  • Fixed issue with metaprocessors and added example metaprocessor for ballbeam

0.2.0 (2017-08-18)

  • Second minor release with lots of new features.

  • Completely overhauled graphical user interface with menus and shortcuts.

  • PyMoskito now comes with three full-fledged examples from the world of control theory, featuring the Ball and Beam- and a Tandem-Pendulum system.

  • The main application now has a logger window which makes it easier to see what is going on in the simulation circuit.

  • Several bugs concerning encoding issues have been fixed

  • Unittest have been added and the development now uses travis-ci

  • Version change from PyQt4 to Pyt5

  • Version change form Python 2.7 to 3.5+

  • Changed version to GPLv3 and added appropriate references for the used images.

  • Improved the export of simulation results

  • Introduced persistent settings that make opening files less painful.

  • Made vtk an optional dependency and added matplotlib based visualizers.

  • Large improvements concerning the sphinx-build documentation

  • Fixed issue concerning possible data types for simulation module properties

  • Introduced new generic modules that directly work on scipy StateSpace objects.

0.1.0 (2015-01-11)

  • First release on PyPI.
